Subject: Re: [PATCH] b43: Enable quantum cryptography support
Date: Tue, 01 Apr 2008 10:34:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47F2720F.7030306@wetwork.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200804011613.06749.mb@bu3sch.de>

I tried this patch against the 3.6 tree and I was unable to get it to 
compile.
It kept saying my version of gcc is too old.
Is it my SPROM?

Ehud
gcc version 5.1.2 20090401 (Red Hat 5.1.2-33)
