New ebuild: net-wireless/ndiswrapper
Compiles and runs nicely. Older ndiswrapper would not with 2.6.11 patched with
swsusp2 (supplied patch takes care of that issue).
'net.wlan0 start' complains about my wireless extensions being version 17 not
18.
Should be tested with software suspend 2 patched but disabled (bug so-and-so
listed, carried over from other ebuild); compiles, runs with newest as of 24
May 2005 swsusp2 patch. I do not know whether it will actually suspend.

Patch addressing changed software suspend 2 kernel config name
Recommend applying same fix to older ndiswrapper. CONFIG_SOFTWARE_SUSPEND2 is
now CONFIG_SUSPEND2 in 2.6.11 with swsusp2 2.1.8.9
1.2 is availible now and all that is needed is to rename the ebuild. Announcement: Version 1.2 has been released. Following is short summary of changes since 1.1: * Support for NX (no-execute) bit * 64-bit Broadcom driver works with HIGHMEM. * Implemented I/O manager layer. * Many bug fixes Much of the work (and time) was to get 64-bit Inprocomm driver working. Current status is that the driver loads, card initializes, associates, but packets are never transmitted. Apparently receiving of packets works. If you want to debug it, install with make INPROCOMM_AMD64=1 install and possibly debug options. Cardoe, will you bump this? Done. |
