linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1_pre14.ebuild (Upgrade Submit) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge net-wireless/linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1_pre14 Well, i dont know why the ebuild for linux-wlan-ng use a patched version of pcmcia-cs 3.2.1+2+3+4. Maybe this ebuild break things cos i'm using pcmcia-cs 3.2.5 for build. Old linux-wlan-ng do not work with the new ebuild pcmcia-cs-3.2.5.. this ebuilds works cool. If you merge linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1_pre11 and pcmcia-cs-3.2.5 you probably have this issue: prism2_init: prism2_cs.o: 0.2.1-pre11 Loaded prism2_init: dev_info is: prism2_cs prism2_cs: CardServices release does not match! :)

Created attachment 19800 [details] linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1_pre14.ebuild that works with any version of pcmcia-cs installed The other ebuild can not be used with <=pcmcia-cs-3.2.4, because it not patches pcmcia-3.2.1 to the current version installed of pcmcia-cs. This ebuild do that.

I think this ebuild can present same problem as bug 25835 (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25835).

> I think this ebuild can present same problem as bug > 25835(http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25835) ¿Did you tested it? Or it's only a supposition since this ebuild is based on =<pre11? I can't tell you if it is an inherited problem, because i can't reproduce bug 25835. If you think that, and know how to reproduce it in you own machine (i guess, you are the reporter of that bug), download and test this please. Thanks :D
I guess because it does contains the same "wrong" lines: have a look at that bug, I (think) solved removing the uneeded "mv default.config config.in". You can simulate that bug using USE="usb pcmcia". I'll test asap.
The test were ok even without the patch.

I get the same error as Priit Laes, too. The only difference is, that I'm using kernel-2.6.0-test10 instead of kernel-2.6.0-test9. Using a older version of linux-wlan-ng doesn't work, neither, because it tells me, that I should use module-init-tools version 2.1.23(!) instead of version 0.9.15.
linux-wlan-ng works sucessfully with 2.6.x series of test kernels. Some devices using the prism2_cs driver from _pre11 lock the machine up if network card is in high load. Not sure if problem has been resolved. Be carefull.
Does this thing make it's way into portage anyday? PS. There's pre15 out there...
