 |
|
trying to get this going on my asus m2n32-deluxe wireless mobo
gone through and enabled the mac stack not the other one
compiled in the 8187usb support
on attempting to emerge rtl8187 i now get a CONFIG_NET_RADIO=y is required
well when I edit .config it doesn't like that because its auto-generated. So when i run make it gets overwritten.
i haven't found anything in menuconfig about config_net_radio (by hitting help on an item)
help? |

| I'd suggest using the RTL8187 module in a recent kernel - no need to "emerge rtl8187" (which is horribly out-of-date and broken anyway). The kernel I'd try first is zen-sources. |

whats the difference between that and the RealTek 8187 USB module in the 2.6.23-gentoo-sources kernelpatchset? |

| About a thousand patches. Some of which will doubtless touch the wireless code. For bugfixes and improvements, hopefully. |
