Bug 89183 – Ebuilds for ZyDAS 1201 based wireless USB Network adapters

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ajay Gautam 2005-04-15 07:27:19 UTC]

Finally completed my first set of ebuilds. Copied from ipw2100 ebuilds.

ZyDAS 1201 driver is divided into 2 parts: firmware and kernel module. Both ebuilds attached.

Feedbask would be appreciated.

Thanks

Ajay

I have the rest of the meta files too. let me know if I should go ahead and attach them too ?

These ebuilds would go in net-wireless.

** Sorry for the typo in original email, I meant "feedback" :)

Thanks

Looks good, only a few things:

* No need to install anything to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware since >=sys-apps/hotplug-20040923 doesn't use that location

* No need to restart hotplug after installing the firmware

* Any particular reason you depend on >=net-wireless/wireless-tools-27_pre23 and not just net-wireless/wireless-tools?

* Please add checks for the needed CONFIG_ options to the module ebuild

Ok. fixed.


* No need to restart hotplug after installing the firmware

I ran into a problem earlier, which was solved by restarting hotplug. Can't replicate it now! Well, removed this too...


* Any particular reason you depend on >=net-wireless/wireless-tools-27_pre23 and not just net-wireless/wireless-tools?

Not really, it was just a copy from net-wireless/ipw2100. Modified.


* Please add checks for the needed CONFIG_ options to the module ebuild
Added USB, Firmware, Wireless. Rest the readme does not point to anything. Posted a question on the driver forums for this.

Would upgrade the ebuilds in a bit.

Thanks

Ajay
