Hello Guillermo thanks for the prompt reply and for new upload. Unfortunately openwrt still doesn't compile mac80211 package.
The patch for package/mac80211/Makefile in o11s-openwrt-r28087.diff causes a download error since Openwrt doesn't find mac80211-2.6.tar.bz2 package in /dl so it tries to download it from all its mirrors but w/out sucess (504: file not found). Editing line #210 in o11s-openwrt-r28087.diff as: +PKG_VERSION:=2.6-o11s-0.4.2 the download is avoided BUT new issues come up: patching from package/mac80211/patches fails in all the patches. So, I kept the original o11s-openwrt-r28087.diff (i.e. +PKG_VERSION:=2.6) but renamed dl/mac80211-2.6-o11s-0.4.2.tar.bz2 to: dl/mac80211-2.6.tar.bz2, since openwrt expects the "mac80211-2.6/" path ...still no sucess: ... patching file Makefile Hunk #1 FAILED at 32. 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file Makefile.rej Patch failed! Please fix ./patches/005-disable_ssb_build.patch! FYI, in all my tries I always started with a clean scenario.
