I have talked with you yesterday about this in wich i told that the drivers from Realtek site would fix the problems cause by the current realtek drivers in current kernel-3.0.x You said that the firmware files should be in nonfree repository, and that part could simply been fixed instead removing packages that provide good modules, that do not the cause the problems reported in: http://lists.shmoo.com/pipermail/hostap/2011-August/023854.html http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-295896-start-0.html and you have simply erased good packages when you could simply moved the firmware package to nonfree repository. But all this was told you yesterday and still you erase the package. > This package will be nuked from the mirrors... > > -- > Thomas > -- Zé
