hi

i got an acx111-networkcard (wireless) in my computer. the kernel-module needs to load a firmwarefile
placed in
/lib/firmware
the same kernelmodule with the same firmware worked fine with archlinux and mandriva. now with gentoo the module loads but says via dmesg
firmware not provided - check your hotplug-scripts.

anyone an idea?

thanks

toby

I have an acx111 networkcard also. When I installed the drivers for it, all I had to do was
Code:
emerge -av acx
and it worked. I know there's a lot of tutorials floating around on how to do that manually. You didn't use one of them, right?
