When I tried compiling the ipw3945 driver against linux-headers-2.6.19 I got the following error: /var/tmp/portage/ipw3945-1.1.2/work/ipw3945-1.1.2/ipw3945.h:32:26: error: linux/config.h: No such file or directory /var/tmp/portage/ipw3945-1.1.2/work/ipw3945-1.1.2/ipw3945.c: In function 'ipw_pci_probe': /var/tmp/portage/ipw3945-1.1.2/work/ipw3945-1.1.2/ipw3945.c:16406: warning: passing argument 2 of 'request_irq' from incompatible pointer type make[2]: *** [/var/tmp/portage/ipw3945-1.1.2/work/ipw3945-1.1.2/ipw3945.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [_module_/var/tmp/portage/ipw3945-1.1.2/work/ipw3945-1.1.2] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.19-gentoo-r1' make: *** [modules] Error 2 !!!

Created attachment 103369 [details, diff] Patch to be applied to ieee80211-1.1.13 Fixed two comments that were left in from texting.
Fixed in CVS, thanks Scott.
*** Bug 161047 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
As Jakub points out, the same patch is required for ipw3945-1.1.0 as well. I have tried this and it works (I just used the existing 1.0.5 patch).
*** Bug 164437 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Grumble... Plz. either unmask the fixed version or backport the fix; getting tired of the dupes. (Plus just 1.1.3-r2 will work correctly w/ WE21 AFAICT).

(In reply to comment #12) > *** Bug 164865 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I did find this bug before, but didn't believe that it was the same problem. AFAICT this bug is a problem with compiling the driver. Mine related to this error: ipw3945: Error sending SCAN_ABORT_CMD: time out after 500ms ... It's not obvious (to me) if this is the same problem at all.

Considering that ipw3945 1.0.5 won't even compile against 2.6.19, I don't see why do we need a special bug for it. That version is dead.

That version is dead. Well ipw3945 1.0.5 from portage compiles against kernel 2.6.19 for me. I just get this error. Also, isn't the point of the stable portage tree that the stuff works? Why are incompatible versions of things in there? IMO upgrading *within* the stable tree shouldn't really break things.
This thing shouldn't have been marked stable at all, first of all. Other than that, I fail to see how's this ranting useful here.
Have you tried with ipw3945-1.2.0 version? I couldn't test it with 2.6.19 due suspend2 doesn't work for me with this kernel, but I am using ipw3945-1.2.0 on 2.6.18 without problems Good luck
I think we should state clearly that to emerge correctly the 1.2.0 version, there are multiple steps involved: 1) Unmerge 2.6.19 gentoo sources 2) Unmerge ieee80211 ebuild 3) re-emerge gentoo-source 4) configure in-kernel 80211 support 5) emerge the ipw package This is caused by ieee80211 modifying the /usr/src/linux directory to accomodate patches; subsequent tries to emerge ipw3945 fail; also, you should use in-kernel 80211 support.
Agreed! I also had to do the steps above to emerge ipw3945 (on vanilla-sources) and didn't know it's necessary...
(In reply to comment #18) > I think we should state clearly that to emerge correctly the 1.2.0 version, > there are multiple steps involved <snip> Ah, thank you. I'll give that a try today.
> I'll give that a try today. Hmmm... okay, not quite. I followed the instructions above, and now I get the following. ipw3945d starts with no problems. net.eth2 gives me the following on the console: * Starting eth2 * Configuring wireless network for eth2 eth2 no wireless extensions. * eth2 does not support scanning * You either need to set a preferred_aps list in /etc/conf.d/wireless * preferred_aps=( "ESSID1" "ESSID2" ) * and set associate_order_eth2="forcepreferred" * or set associate_order_eth2="forcepreferredonly" * or hardcode the ESSID to "any" and let the driver find an Access Point * essid_eth2="any" * or configure defaulting to Ad-Hoc when Managed fails * adhoc_essid_eth2="WLAN" * or hardcode the ESSID against the interface (not recommended) * essid_eth2="ESSID" * Failed to configure wireless for eth2 dmesg says: ieee80211_crypt_wep: disagrees about version of symbol ieee80211_register_crypto_ops ieee80211_crypt_wep: Unknown symbol ieee80211_register_crypto_ops ieee80211_crypt_wep: disagrees about version of symbol ieee80211_unregister_crypto_ops ieee80211_crypt_wep: Unknown symbol ieee80211_unregister_crypto_ops eth2: could not initialize WEP: load module ieee80211_crypt_wep ipw3945: Error sending SCAN_ABORT_CMD: time out after 500ms.

I have removed the previous version of ieee80211 and am using the in-kernel version. Also, I have re-emerged ipw3945 (version 1.2.0). I am using the versions of ipw3945d and ipw3945-ucode from ~x86. Thanks!
Just a quick reply to #21 - what i wrote is the procedure i applied to my dell d620; some more info: sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.19-r5 equery list ipw3945 [I--] [ ~] net-wireless/ipw3945-1.2.0 (0) [I--] [ ~] net-wireless/ipw3945-ucode-1.14.2 (0) [I--] [ ~] net-wireless/ipw3945d-1.7.22-r4 (0) Also check http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_ipw3945 for details on configuring kernel.
(In reply to comment #22) Excellent, thanks. After a cleanout of /lib/modules this did the trick. All appears to be working so far. Thanks for the help.
1.2.0 is stable now; closing.
