Following the pcmcia howto, I disabled CONFIG_PCMCIA in my .config in /usr/src/linux-2.4.20-ck2. I made and installed the kernel, rebooted using that kernel and attempted to merge pcmcia-cs. I recieved warnings that CONFIG_HZ was undeclared in cs.c. I compared my .config with that of a freind who also uses gentoo and who uses wireless. He also had CONFIG_PCMCIA disabled in his .config. His kernel works fine, and he has been able to merge pcmcia-cs with the kernel which corresponds to his .config. There was no CONFIG_HZ in his .config, but there was one in mine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.disable CONFIG_PCMCIA in the kernel .config for ck-sources. 2.make the kernel, install, and reboot using that kernel. 3.run 'emerge pcmcia-cs' Actual Results: compilation of pcmcia-cs failed Expected Results: it should have succeeded [root]# emerge info Portage 2.0.46-r9 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.1, glibc-2.3.1-r2) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.20-ck2 i686 mobile AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1400+ GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu/pub/gentoo http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/kde/2/share/config /opt/jakarta/tomcat/conf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" USE="x86 cups mikmod mmx zlib gtkhtml gdbm berkdb bonobo guile esd X gtk -gnome -kde -alsa ruby python perl jpeg gif png dvd mpeg truetype xml xml2 tiff oss apm 3dnow xmms oggvorbis gpm imlib java libwww libg++ motif ncurses nls opengl pam pdflib -qt -qtmt quicktime readline sdl slang spell ssl svga tcpd xv pcmcia pnp cdr fbcon -arts tcltk avi ggi encode snmp crypt imap ldap maildir mbox mozilla tetex plotutils -mysql postgres odbc acpi4linux decss threads" COMPILER="gcc3" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -funroll-loops -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4" CXXFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -funroll-loops -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" MAKEOPTS="-j1" AUTOCLEAN="no" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" FEATURES="sandbox ccache"

Brandon: any changed with/in the kernel that does this ?
the ck kernels are not supported by the x86-kernel team as we do not build the patches for them. They are supplied for user convienence. This goes for any non-gentoo kernel. (2.5.XX, -aa,-ac,-ck,-mm,wolk,redhat,vanilla)
Considering Bob's post, I'm sure this bug can be closed.
