Do you see this bug also on vanilla-kernel?

I'll have to make one first.

I'll let you know when its done ( couple minutes ) 

builds and loads ok in 2.6.11 ( vanilla )

but since its broken on the mm tree, I suspect that soon it will be broken on the vanilla tree as well ( unless something gets changed before that )

sorry the noise.
:)

Self-fulfilling prophecies? :) Well, it is indeed broken in vanilla now, and
not limited to amd64 either (plain old PIII here). I'll try again with an older
kernel, the one that breaks it is 2.6.12-rc2, and the error message I'm getting
is identical to the one in the original report.

rt2500 emerge log

Please reopen this bug, same error with vanilla 2.6.12-rc3.

reopening.

reassigning the the appropriate herd and cc'ing myself in. This fault looks
like its a problem with a conditional include in the rt2500 code. Not checked
yet though.

It's a general problem with the driver and kernel >= 2.6.10
You will find Info's how to patch the driver at http://sourceforge.net/projects/rt2400

Can you please give us a direct link to the patch or wiki node?
And maybe make an ebuild for it and test it so that I can RESOLVE this bug :)

emerge rt2500 log file

Still flunking out of module compilation, now with vanilla kernel 2.6.12-rc4.
I've looked around the sourceforge site for hints or patches, but came up
empty. 

Please provide me with a patch to fix it with the crrent coe and I will do.

Otherwise I will just wait for:
http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php/Rt2x00_alpha

to become useable, so that I can make a version bump.

Patch for rtmp_main.c

Frankly, I have no idea what I'm doing here, but it appears to compile and
install when I do it... Found this page in the support section of their
sourceforge site, and produced a patch from what I read there:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1196199&group_id=107832&atid=648845


Looks like rt2500 in CVS has been patched a long time ago, while Gentoo is
still using the outdated form. Maybe it's better to use that newer version
rather than patch the one we've got? You better double-check the whole thing
before using the patch... Anyway, changing that one line in rtmp_main.c makes
it compile with my 2.6.12-rc4 kernel.

Does your patch break older kernels?

It makes it compile for me with rc4-mm1 :)

thanks fixed

I apply the patch conditionally on kernel ge 2 6 12
