Hi list. Not often I issue a last rites, but here we go! rt2x00-beta3 driver is going to be masked over the next few days and then removed from portage around the end of January.
This is at the request of upstream as they're mainly bored of fixing compile and useability errors in beta3 with new kernels and want to concentrate on beta4. To be fair, the rt2x00 project has never issued a stable driver and beta3 codebase is very old as shortly after its release they changed to the devicescape stack, which in turn isn't in the mainstream kernel either. I try to keep the rt2x00 cvs ebuild working with the latest 2.6 kernels we have in Gentoo, and you are encouraged to use that in it's place. Failing that, we also offer the rt2500 driver which I can personally vouch works, and other ratech drivers for your hardware. Thanks Roy -- [email protected] mailing list
