ipw3945 ~amd64

Does anyone have ipw3945 on x86_64 Gentoo running?

http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=ipw3945

Currently the 3 packages are ~x86, just wondering if anyone has added the keyword ~amd64 to the ebuild and have it working.

Thank you,

I do.

I copied latest versions of ipw3945, ipw3945d and ipw3945-ucode into overlay folder. Marked then as ~amd64 and installed with no problem. I was also able to use wpa_supplicant for WPA2 support.

Regards,

V
