I am trying to compile net-wireless/ieee80211-1.1.6 on a system with the 2.6.9-gentoo-r1 sources. I've tried doing a make mrproper and restoring my .config file. I then do a make and a make modules. If the module does not compile with my kernel, I would guess the ebuild would have a prereq for the proper kernel. I get the following errors: * Determining the location of the kernel source code * Found kernel source directory: * /usr/src/linux * Found sources for kernel version: * 2.6.9-gentoo-r1 * Checking for suitable kernel configuration options: >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking ieee80211-1.1.6.tgz to /var/tmp/portage/ieee80211-1.1.6/work >>> Source unpacked. * Preparing ieee80211 module `-mcpu=' is deprecated.
