As mentioned above, net-wireless/orinoco-sn-0.13e_pre15 fails to compile with gentoo-sources-2.6.23 because of two reasons: 1) The ebuild checks for CONF_NET_WIRELESS which doesn't exists for 2.6.23 kernels. 2) If I fake it (adding it to .conf) orinoco-sn fails to compile. See attached log for details. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Get a 2.6.23 kernel 2. Add CONF_NET_WIRELESS=y to /usr/src/linux/.conf 3. emerge orinoco-sn Actual Results: See attached emerge log Expected Results: Compiling, for example.

Created attachment 143061 [details] Log of the failed build
Having the same issue as above. I had tried to go around by removing the CONF_NET_RADIO requirement from the ebuild but no dice, failed slightly differently (will attach).
Created attachment 152815 [details] Failed ebuild after removing CONF_NET_RADIO requirement...
isnt there an in-kernel driver for the orinoco?
Probably a candidate for removal as looks like they are supported by in-kernel drivers: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-4812143.html?sid=cd7fc5702b768c40c64710bc5dfc1739#4812143
