Hi Sam, Indeed, it looks like a common typo. However, it looks like your version is also not entirely correct or wide use: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/supersede#English We probably need to use "superseded" instead. Being a non-native speaker, I am definitely not an expert in this area though. Maxim For the sake of completeness, I c&p a patch here diff --git a/share/man/man4/iwlwifi.4 b/share/man/man4/iwlwifi.4 index bfb3c00d921..94614b3b15f 100644 --- a/share/man/man4/iwlwifi.4 +++ b/share/man/man4/iwlwifi.4 @@ -186,7 +186,7 @@ Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX204 160MHz .Nm will be a successor to .Xr iwm 4 -and may superseed that driver in the future. +and may supersede that driver in the future. It still complements the .Xr iwn 4 driver which supports older chipsets. Hello Maxim I appreciate your investigation and agree your recommendation as our probable best solution.

(In reply to Graham Perrin from comment #5) First, you have to merge the changes into the stable/13 branch. Then you have to wait until the next update of the FreeBSD -STABLE manual pages at man.freebsd.org, which usually happens every 3 months. (In reply to Graham Perrin from comment #5) Hi Graham, I plan to merge this delta next week unless someone gets ahead of me. Thanks, Maxim (In reply to Maxim Konovalov from comment #7) Taking, thanks; it'll be an opportunity for my first use of git-cherry-pick(1). (I asked a simple question in #freebsd-dev a few minutes ago, I don't foresee difficulty.)

Gentlebeings, I have found what I believe is a spelling error on the iwlwifi man page. Detailed below iwlwifi will be a successor to iwm(4) and may superseed that driver in the future. Should read: iwlwifi will be a successor to iwm(4) and may SUPERCEDE that driver in the future. Caps just to indicate the incorrectly spelled word.
