Under 2.6.12-r10 everything is fine, but with gentoo-sources-2.6.13-r3 wpa_supplicant does no longer start ipw2100 even if the modules required are loaded. For emerging ieee80211 I removed the file /usr/src/linux/include/net/ieee80211.h as requested by the ebuild. On starzing /etc/init.d/net.eth1 i get the following errormessage: localhost ~ # /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start * Starting eth1 * Starting wpa_supplicant on eth1 ... ioctl[SIOCSIWPMKSA]: Operation not supported ioctl[IPW_IOCTL_WPA_SUPPLICANT]: Operation not supported ioctl[IPW_IOCTL_WPA_SUPPLICANT]: Operation not supported ioctl[IPW_IOCTL_WPA_SUPPLICANT]: Operation not supported ioctl[IPW_IOCTL_WPA_SUPPLICANT]: Operation not supported ioctl[IPW_IOCTL_WPA_SUPPLICANT]: Operation not supported ioctl[IPW_IOCTL_WPA_SUPPLICANT]: Operation not supported ioctl[IPW_IOCTL_WPA_SUPPLICANT]: Operation not supported [ ok ] * timed out [ !! ] Since everything runs perfectly unchanged under 2.6.12-r10 my /etc/wpa_supplicant.config is ok Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. see above 2. 3. localhost ~ # emerge -pv wpa_supplicant ieee80211 ipw2100 ipw2100-firmware These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

You need to run wpa_supplicant with "-D wext" instead of "-D ipw" since linux- 2.6.13+ supports WE-18 (which in turn supports WPA) and thus deprecates the private WPA ioctls of the ipw* drivers. Correct your configuration in /etc/conf.d/net and/or /etc/conf.d/wireless
