Hi, net-wireless/adm8211 has been broken under recent kernels for some months now... Just today however, I stumbled some patches that cleaned up most of the issues. The site mentioned here is where I got most of the patches, the one exception being the 2.6.20-no-config_h.patch, which is my own creation. These fix compiler errors with newer kernels. I'll try the module out shortly (as soon as I locate my SMC wireless card), but it builds successfully under hardened-sources-2.6.20.
