I have seen some proposed kernel patches and will see if I can get an externally built module to work.
I am hoping that there will be kernel support soon as even if it does work, maintaining an out of tree driver will be a pain.
For now, I am using an external USB wifi dongle .In the worst case, I can replace the wifi card with a better supported one, but I find that a non-working wifi card isn't as big a problem as I thought because:
- I can use wired lan
- When I am on the move, I anyway USB tether to my phone which has a wireless plan
- I can use a USB wifi dongle
