 |
|
I have a Dell 600m that I have Gentoo 2.6.9-r6 running quite well on (with xorg and KDE). I'm trying to get my wireless going, but I'm running into a little trouble.
When I do:
| Code: | | bash-2.05b# emerge ipw2100 |
I get:
| Code: | Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) net-wireless/ipw2100-0.56-r1 to /
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) ipw2100-0.56.tgz
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) ipw2100-fw-1.3.tgz
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) ipw2100-0.56-2.4-v9.patch.gz
!!! ERROR: net-wireless/ipw2100-0.56-r1 failed.
!!! Function kernel-mod_configoption_present, Line 90, Exitcode 1
!!! kernel has not been configured yet
|
Now, I'm very sure my kernel has been configured, since I'm running it and all, so what's the deal?
Thanks! |

| I had a problem getting the ipw2100 once, so i just tried a slightly older version from the portage directory and it worked fine |

ipw2100-0.56-r1 looks like the oldest one in portage try out 1.0.1 see what that gives you. Also double check you're running the right kernel I sometimes foget to copy over the bzImage file and make sure that your /usr/src/linux symlink is pointing to the correct directory.
Just for kicks i deleted my /usr/src/linux symlink and got the same message. Make sure you have that.
| Code: | | ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.9-gentoo-r6/ /usr/src/linux |
