[avmian]

HI,

Can not emerge ipw2100.

Please help !

It doesn't work before and after a brand new sync end "update deep world"
Evrerything else works prefectly on my platform


Here the emerge output:

Here the line 193 of /var/tmp/portage/ieee80211-1.1.6/work/ieee80211-1.1.6/ieee80211_tx.c

static struct ieee80211_txb *ieee80211_alloc_txb(int nr_frags, int txb_size,
unsigned __nocast gfp_mask)

the problem should be linked to the __nocast


hope you can help.

Upgrade your kernel, 2.6.14 and greater has excellent in-kernel-support for ipw2xxx, no need for third-part modules...
