Description:   Opened: 2005-08-29 21:04 0000 
I set the amd64 keyword in the acx100-0.2.4 ebuild, it compiled without 
failure and after loading the module and forcing my adapter to "wake-up" with 
ifconfig wlan0 up I was able to establish an ad-hoc connection to my laptop.  

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.




This is the PCI card used in my amd64 machine for this: 
0000:05:07.0 Network controller: Texas Instruments ACX 111 54Mbps Wireless 
Interface 
I believe it was a Netgear WG311v2. 
uname -r: 2.6.12-gentoo-r9

err..just a quick correction: this package definitely needs to be masked since 
i discovered a bug that will lock the machine up nearly always with a kernel 
>=2.6.11  
The acx100 project is aware of it and tries to fix it. 
Anyway, masking makes sense but having ~amd64 added to the keywords shouldn't 
hurt too much.

I also got it to compile and run fine after setting ~amd64 keyword in
net-wireless/acx100-0.2.4.ebuild, compiled w/o failure and after that I was able
to fire up my OvisLink WL-8000PCM wlan (ACX111-chip).
Configuration handled with /etc/conf.d/wireless and it just seems to run fine,
connects nicely to my accesspoint, both at home (WEP) and at school (MAC-filtering).

Haven't experienced any lockups.

uname -r: 2.6.12-gentoo-r10

post 2.6.11-rc1 bugs have been fixed in the 0913 snapshot.  I am running it
successfully.  You can grab and test from my mirror at acx100.erley.org

we're currently testing a new alias system, sorry for the bugspam

------- Comment #5 From Robin Johnson 2005-12-01 23:51:46 0000 ------- 
I'll test it on an em64t box at work, using a PCI acx100 soon.

Tested 0.3.2 on amd64 with USR acx100 PCMCIA device. ~amd64.

Thanks.
