Description Akos Ladanyi 2004-10-18 04:52:21 UTC
Some change between rc3 and rc4 causes this. The linux-dvb project had a similar problem. See this link: http://www.linuxtv.org/mailinglists/linux-dvb/2004/10-2004/msg00294.html. Tried today's cvs snapshot and it compiled with rc4. So I guess we need an update.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Peter Johanson (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-18 06:54:24 UTC
I'll let solar have final say on this, but for the most part, we really don't have the time as devs to follow every change/error in every RC kernel with kernel module packages. As soon as the kernel is a *release* kernel, we'll make any updates necessary to support it.

Solar?
Comment 2 Akos Ladanyi 2004-10-18 07:21:28 UTC
Sorry for asking then. I'll file a new bug when 2.6.9 comes out.

Comment 3 Aaron Kulbe (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-19 10:08:04 UTC
The 2.6.9 kernel is now out.  The same holds true.  I cannot compile the madwifi-driver against 2.6.9.
Comment 4 solar (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-19 10:38:26 UTC
Re comment #1 we can take a new snapshot.
Comment 5 solar (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-19 12:00:45 UTC
A new 20041019 snapshot of madwifi-driver / madfi-tools are in the tree. 

Please test with the following kernels.
linux-2.4.27
linux-2.6.7
linux-2.6.9
Comment 6 golloza 2004-10-20 06:13:19 UTC
Except wlan_auth and wlan_radius 20041019 works here with 2.6.9.

Comment 7 solar (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-20 06:38:05 UTC
Re comment #6 
Ok can you disable the multi ssid patch and see if you get the same results
Comment 8 golloza 2004-10-20 07:10:18 UTC
Oops

I just figured out that wlan_radius and wlan_auth aren't included in 20041019.
The were still in /lib/modules/2.6.9/net (for some reason portage thinks, it is config protected), no wonder it didn't work.
Comment 9 Henrik Brix Andersen 2004-10-22 11:50:56 UTC
So this bug can be closed as FIXED?
Comment 10 golloza 2004-10-24 07:59:58 UTC
Yes, 20041019 works with the modified skbuff.h
Comment 11 Henrik Brix Andersen 2004-11-01 05:49:18 UTC
Ok. Closing as FIXED. Thank you for verifying.
