 Posted: Tue Dec 18, 2007 2:17 pm Post subject: emerge fails for ipw3945 for kernel 2.6.24_rc3 |
 |
|
Hi,
I am trying to upgrade from kernel 2.6.22.5 to 2.6.24_rc3.
The problem that occurs is that I can not emerge the wlan driver ipw3945. I used the old config for the new kernel, did a make oldconfig and compiled the new kernel.
The emerge of ipw3945 gave me that output:

Maybe the kernel is configured wrong ... Here is a part of my .config:

# CONFIG_MAC80211 is not set

Maybe the ipw3945 driver is not compatible with the new kernel.
Try using the newer driver called iwlwifi. It is included in 2.6.24 kernel. |
