Wanted to setup my wireless card "05:00.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 rev B 802.11g" but can not emerge any of it's drivers: <... see link in atachment ...> Somebody at forums told it's just happening with the new kernel. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: just try to emerge any of these ports Actual Results: ports not emerged Expected Results: i'd expect these ports to emerge i tried different kernel configuration, none helped. i could compile kernel with rt61pci and related modules, but didn't know how to set them up for work, so i followed several howtos which suggested emerging one of above mentioned packages
CONFIRMED (2.6.24-r4 sempron desktop rt2500 & rt61 chipset) The support of rt2500 and rt61 is inserted into the kernel, and the emerge tree rt2500 and rt61 cannot be compiled :( however: kernel side rt2500 and rt61 has a bug: cannot handle channels >=11 :( ! if you try to download the daily version of rt2500 and rt61 from serial monkey (http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page) it will work.
removed from tree, wontfix
