Upgrading ath5k works great but seems to have broken my usb adaptor with is some sort of rt2x00 device. Whenever I insert the adaptor I get a lot of: >> >> rt2x00lib: disagrees about version of symbol ieee80211_register_hw >> >> [249986.361060] rt2x00lib: Unknown symbol ieee80211_register_hw >> >> [249986.361503] rt2x00lib: disagrees about version of symbol ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb >> >> [249986.361509] rt2x00lib: Unknown symbol ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb >> >> [249986.361727] rt2x00lib: disagrees about version of symbol ieee80211_wake_queue >> >> [249986.361733] rt2x00lib: Unknown symbol ieee80211_wake_queue >> >> [249986.362182] rt2x00lib: disagrees about version of symbol ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe >> >> [249986.362188] rt2x00lib: Unknown symbol ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe > I guess this is because of the new mac80211 module from compat-wireless mismatch with my original rt2x00 driver. So my question is, how do you build rt2x00 and friends from compat-wireless, there doesn't seem to be an option in ./scripts/driver-select. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just compile and install everything in compat-wireless. If something fails to compile, please report. If some drivers fail symbol verification, it's not a problem as long as you don't need those drivers. I checked the current compat-wireless on Linux 2.6.26, and following modules have unresolved symbols: b43.ko b43legacy.ko b44.ko rt2800pci.ko rt2800usb.ko wl1271.ko rt2800usb could be your device, but most likely your device is something older and shouldn't be affected. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
