Bug 427804

Summary: [kernel options] CONFIG_ATH9K_PCI is not set
Product: Gentoo Release Media Reporter: Vasco Figueira <vasco.figueira>
Component: InstallCDAssignee: Gentoo Release Team <releng>
Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE    
Severity: normal

Runtime testing required: ---

Description Vasco Figueira 2012-07-23 19:49:12 UTC
CONFIG_ATH9K_PCI is not enabled (at least) in the minimal installer. Support for PCI-based Atheros Wireless cards is therefore lacking.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. zgrep _ATH9K_PCI /proc/config.gz

Actual Results:  
# CONFIG_ATH9K_PCI is not set

Expected Results:  
CONFIG_ATH9K_PCI=y

I don't know the criteria for driver inclusion in installer releases. CONFIG_ATH9K_HTC and CONFIG_ATH9K_AHB might be considered as well.
