Description Tom Wijsman (TomWij) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-04-12 16:28:44 UTC
Current stable only supports kernels older than 3.8; 3.028 has a patch for 3.8, perhaps even a newer version might be more interesting for stabilization. If you want to stabilize; please replace "?" in the Summary, CC the arches and state the target keywords. Thank you very much in advance.

I cannot really work on this anymore as i don't have any hardware that's supported by this driver.
Comment 2 James Le Cuirot gentoo-dev 2015-03-24 23:29:16 UTC
I have taken on this package and have just bumped it to 8.039.00, which should work with all kernel versions, unlike the current stable version. I will give this version some air time before poking the arch teams.

amd64 stable
Comment 4 James Le Cuirot gentoo-dev 2015-08-04 08:46:53 UTC
Thanks ago. Ping x86 team! To be honest though, I'm not sure you'd even find this hardware on a pure-x86 machine. If no one cares, I'd be tempted to drop it back to unstable.
Comment 5 Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2015-08-06 07:23:53 UTC
x86 stable. Closing.
