 000-linux_mips.patch
        This is the diff between vanilla linux-2.4.30 and linux-mips.org kernel
        (CVS tag 2_4_30 used). The kernel source from linux-mips.org CVS repository has
        newer drivers and code then vanilla linux-2.4.30 especially for the mips architecture.

-001-bcm47xx.patch
-       This is the broadcom specific code from asus (1941) GPL source tarball. 
-       There are many small patches included, so it works with linux 2.4.30 kernel. 
-       The original code is based on Linux 2.4.20.
-
-002-wl_fix.patch
-       The driver for the wireless lan chip on brcm47xx based routers is binary only. 
-       This means it depends on older data structures in the kernel. We backported some
-       of the changes or changed some of the data structures to work with the binary modul. 
-       This is a really bad hack, but without source code, there is no better chance to get
-       the driver working with newer kernels.
