# Jeremy Olexa <darkside@gentoo.org> (12 Jun 2010) # Use in-kernel drivers. Removed in 60 days net-wireless/prism54 driver is being replaced by p54 driver http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/p54 The prism54-2.13.ebuild in tree properly installed my firmware for kernel 2.34.1 this was not gentoo-sources but a kernel dload. Checked the md5sum matched the download from wireless.kernel.org I had used. System is amd64 WORKSFORME Driver package should be dropped in favor of kernel driver and prism54-firmware moved to p54 likely. But don't drop the firmware.ebuild please!!! Sorry meant to say prism54-firmware-2.13.ebuild WORKSFORME using /lib/firmware/isl3886pci installed from the ebuild added CC dont worry! the prism54-firmware package is not scheduled for removal. Thanks and it needs a version bump the 'stable' package doesn't work with current (dare I asy recent kernels) but anyway for amd64 it seems to be fine thats cool and all, but really doesnt belong here. please open a new bug about or it will get lost. thanks. Bug#: 328329 removed, closing. |
from the ebuild: if kernel_is ge 2 6 10; then eerror "The driver in your kernel is newer than this snapshot, please use it" eerror "together with prism54-firmware instead of this ebuild." die "kernel drivers are newer" fi thanks
