see build.log and environment Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge acer_acpi 2. 3. Actual Results: compilation fails w. errors u see in build.log Expected Results: compilation goes well 2 the end (so driver will be use 2 start-up wlan: otherwise laptop can't be used in normal way!) * ERROR: app-laptop/acer_acpi-0.5 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_compile * environment, line 3327: Called linux-mod_src_compile * environment, line 2570: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * eval "emake HOSTCC=\"$(tc-getBUILD_CC)\" CROSS_COMPILE=${CHOST}- LDFLAGS=\"$(get_abi_LDFLAGS)\" ${BUILD_FIXES} ${BUILD_PARAMS} ${BUILD_TARGETS} " || die "Unable to emake HOSTCC="$(tc-getBUILD_CC)" CROSS_COMPILE=${CHOST}- LDFLAGS="$(get_abi_LDFLAGS)" ${BUILD_FIXES} ${BUILD_PARAMS} ${BUILD_TARGETS}"; * The die message: * Unable to emake HOSTCC=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc CROSS_COMPILE=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu- LDFLAGS= KERNELSRC=/usr/src/linux KERNELVERSION=2.6.29-gentoo-r5 all

*** Bug 274745 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Unless you're using a very old kernel (you're not), you don't need acer_acpi. It has been obsoleted by acer-wmi kernel driver (as mentioned in duplicate bugs, i.e. bug 208577 comment 10).
Seeing all those duplicates, perhaps it would be a good idea to add a hard fail if the kernel is recent enough. Though this one may not be a real dupe, it looks like a different type of failure than most of the others.
fixed in cvs.
