   * For 2.6.27, use this [[http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/mac80211_2.6.27_frag+ack_v2.patch|backport of the 2.6.28 patch]].
   * For compat-wireless packages, apply the wireless-testing patch to the compat-wireless package itself. Compat-wireless-2.6 currently needs the 2.6.28 patch, while compat-wireless-old can be used with the 2.6.27 one.
-  * For 2.6.29 & 2.6.30-rcX, some drivers need [[http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/mac80211-2.6.29-fix-tx-ctl-no-ack-retry-count.patch|an additional patch]] on top of the 2.6.28 patch. This is not needed in wireless-testing/compat-wireless, and will not be needed in 2.6.31.
+  * For 2.6.29 & 2.6.30, some drivers need [[http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/mac80211-2.6.29-fix-tx-ctl-no-ack-retry-count.patch|an additional patch]] on top of the 2.6.28 patch. This fix is already included in 2.6.31 and newer kernels, so this patch should only be used up to 2.6.30.
 **IMPORTANT: The fix-tx-ctl-no-ack patch is NOT a replacement for the fragmentation patch, it is an additional patch that some drivers require in addition to the fragmentation patch.**
