| |
I have built and booted several kernel.org releases of kernel 2.6, ever since rt2860 was added to the staging area. I have an rt2860 mini-pci wifi card. To make a long story short, the last kernel release I built with rt2860 config enabled (module), that actually worked (i.e. rt2860 driver worked) was (I think) kernel 2.6.28.
I have not been able to get it working in 2.6.[29,30,31,32]
So, what I have been doing is to copy full rt2860 directory (which I had extracted and saved from the last working version) into the latest kernel, and I make sure that
rt2860/config.mk has
HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y
HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y
This is the only way I can get my wireless working.
So, if anyone on this list has it working in latest kernel, without resorting to what I am doing, please share you "how-to".
If this is the wrong list to ask about this, then please tell, which list discusses driver problems?
Cheers,
JD
