Description:   Opened: 2005-03-22 06:00 0000
The RTL8180 depends on some kernel options the ebuild currently doesn't check
for: CRYPTO, CRYPTO_ARC4 and CRC32.

The ARC4 algorithm was added to mainline with 2.6.4-rc3/2.4.26-pre2, see
http://lwn.net/Articles/75117/ and http://lwn.net/Articles/80386/.

(From update of attachment 54150 [edit])
Adds CRYPTO, CRYPTO_ARC4, and CRC32 to CONFIG_CHECK

------- Comment #3 From Stefan Schweizer 2005-03-22 13:22:57 0000 -------
where do you know that from? Can I confirm that from the source? Does the
driver work without WEP and the crypto-functions?

------- Comment #4 From Henrik Brix Andersen 2005-03-22 14:21:03 0000 -------
FYI: the ipw2x00 drivers depend on the same options to work with WEP. To avoid
confusion, the ipw2x00 ebuilds require these options to be enabled in the
kernel at merge time.

I think it would make sense to check for these options in the rtl8180 ebuild as
well.

thanks, fixed.

I didn't have crypto enabled but still the ebuild didn't give me any errors.
The actual build process did give me errors. I am using 0.20.2.
