Comment 7 Thilo Bangert (RETIRED) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-28 19:06:29 UTC 
you dont want it stable afterall?
Comment 8 Fabio Erculiani (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-28 19:14:39 UTC 
Didn't you fix KEYWORDS already? I thought you did, if not, reopen
Comment 9 David J Cozatt 2012-02-27 15:39:35 UTC 
If his installs the proper firmware then bug #328327 should be closed? I can test for my hardware. It was working last I checked but as stated in the referenced bug I can only vouch for 'p54pci' and not usb. That system is using a version 3.x kernel and wlan0 starts and connects automatically at system boot with the latest openrc and wpa_supplicant. 

The kernel module is called 'p54' may want to consider a name change?
