(excuse my english) Compile acx driver fails with kernel gentoo-sources-2.6.27. With previous kernel (<2.6.27) work driver good. With 2.6.27 cannot driver create kernel module and wifi not work.

With kernel gentoo-sources-2.6.27-r2 similar problem, similar print-out.
To fix this you need to pass the info parameter that comes into the get_scan handler to iwe_stream_add_point and co, and adjst references to IW_EV_LCP_LEN to use iwe_stream_lcp_len(info) Upstream commit that included this API change and ported drivers (good for examples): http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=ccc580571cf0799d0460a085a7632b77753f083e
Reminder to maintainers: 2.6.27 is planned to go stable on December 15th, it would be great if you could work on this before then
A possible patch exists here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker2/?func=detail&aid=2301801&group_id=75380&atid=543747
I have got the same problem, how can we fix that ? Should we patch the kernel ?
(In reply to comment #6) > A possible patch exists here: > http://sourceforge.net/tracker2/?func=detail&aid=2301801&group_id=75380&atid=543747 Ok, I confirmed that this patch against the ACX source works for me on AMD64 with gentoo kernel 2.6.27. You do not need to patch the kernel, just the acx sources.
Where/what exactly is this patch and how do I apply it?

Currently it is also required to patch the SHIRQ stuff; and I wasn't able to get the USB part working anymore... git version if this thing is hopeless too.
Thanks for reporting, a new version of net-wireless/acx is available in Portage with fixes for kernels up to 2.6.32 (included), please test it and open new bugs if your issues persist.
The bug reappers for gentoo-sources 2.6.34. The module fails to compile.
