On Dell Inspiron 6400 with ipw3945 wireless card, I emerged net-wireless/ieee80211-1.2.15 and rebooted to load new drivers. the system locked up completely near the end of the boot process (Setting up gdm). Retried 4 times. Same outcome. Downgraded to previous stable version 1.1.13-r1 and all worked properly as before. I could find nothing unusual in the logs. emerge --info Portage 2.1.1 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.4-r3, 2.6.16-suspend2-r8 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.16-suspend2-r8 i686 Genuine Intel(R) CPU T2400 @ 1.83GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.12.4 Last Sync: Thu, 14 Sep 2006 09:00:01 +0000 app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r3 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r5 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-pipe -O2 -march=prescott -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/splash /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-pipe -O2 -march=prescott -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo/ http://ftp.club-internet.fr/pub/mirrors/gentoo ftp://130.59.10.34/mirror/gentoo/" LINGUAS="" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X acpi alsa apache2 arts avahi berkdb bitmap-fonts bluetooth cdr cli crypt cups dbus dlloader dri dv dvb dvd dvdread eds elibc_glibc emboss encode esd fbcon fbsplash firefox foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif gimpprint gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal howl imlib input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse input_devices_synaptics ipv6 isdnlog jpeg kde kernel_linux ldap libg++ libnotify libwww mad mikmod mmx mono motif mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin ogg opengl oss pam pcre perl png pppd python qt qt3 qt4 quicktime readline reflection samba sdl session spell spl sse sse2 ssl tcpd theora tiff totem truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev userland_GNU video_cards_fglrx video_cards_radeon video_cards_vesa vorbis win32codecs xml xmms xorg xv xvid zlib" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Which ipw3945 version is that ?
Also, this could be a possible duplicate of bug #146715.

Sorry for the delay getting back. I am running [ebuild R ] net-wireless/ipw3945-1.1.0 USE="-debug"

UPSTREAM decided to do that sort of bump (I've no clue why). Anyway this should be fixed with ipw3945-1.1.0-r1 (just commited that), which has a fixed [R]DEPEND upon ieee80211-1.1.13-r1.

For me ipw3945 works fine with ieee80211-1.1.14-r1, I first let the ebuild downgrade as it wanted but I have really bad disconnection issues with 1.1.13 so I dared to upgrade to 1.1.14-r1 again wich previously solved the problem and everything works great, I've never seen any lock down during boot. The problem must lie elswhere than ieee80211. Until the hard dependency is removed, is there an easy way to bypass this or do I have to create an overlay and a modified ebuild?
I had this same problem with my ipw3945d. I have all packages unmasked (ACCEPT_KEYWORKDS="~x86"). When I ran "emerge -av iee80211 ipw3945", both iee80211-1.2.15 AND iee80211-1.13-r1 appeared in the list, along with ipw9345-1.1.0-r1. (I believe ipw3945d-1.1.0-r1 hard depends on net-wireless/ieee80211-1.1.13-r1). After letting that install anyway, my laptop completely hardlocks about 2 seconds after starting ipw3945d. After rebooting, I removed all of those packages, added ">net-wireless/ieee80211-1.1.13-r1" to /etc/portage/package.mask, and re-emerged iee80211 and ipw3945. With _only_ iee80211-1.1.13-r1 installed, everything works fine.
Something really weird happened to me eariler today and this is the only bug that looks close. I was in Dallas airport, trying to use their T-Mobile WiFi network. dhcpcd worked fine and got name servers, gateway, etc. The first site that it redirects you to worked fine as well. However, clicking on any other link gave me kernel panics in ieee80211. The same thing happened when I did "lynx test.com"
Could you guys please unmerge ieee80211, remove your kernel-sources (as in emerge -C and rm -rf /usr/src/linux), remerge them and then remerge ipw3945 / ipw3945-ucode (the ~arch'ed version(s)) ? Please reopen this bug once you have the test-results.
