What we want to do for the next linaro release 11.09 is have working USB wifi support out of the box on beagle/beagle xm with the developer image.
Tho you won't have to twist my arm hard at all to include BT in that goal as well Tony :-)
We like to keep the developer image as small as possible so the fun part is keeping this to the minimal number of packages to make it work.
For wifi I BELIEVE we just need to add wireless-tools.
So here's what I'd like you to do.
Grab the developer rootfs - http://snapshots.linaro.org/11.05-daily/linaro-developer/20110831/0/images/t... grab the omap3 hwpack - http://snapshots.linaro.org/11.05-daily/linaro-hwpacks/omap3/20110831/0/imag...
Install to sd with linaro-media-create.
If you can apt-get install wireless-tools and see if that's enough to get your wifi working. If not what else did you need?
Looks like we need to add the config's for a bunch of usb wifi drivers..
Robert, could you send me a list of CONFIGs we should have on for wireless?
Will do, just be a sec..
BTW, panda also needs this patch, to enable wl12xx regulator (only for 3.0.x, for 3.1-rc's it's moved to twl-common, yet still needs a simlar tweak):

Hi John,
Here's a list pulled from my stable tree, I have a good pile of random wifi adapters, so i've added notes to config options that i've personally tested..
