Summary: Review Request: rt2x00-kmod https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202528 ------- Additional Comments From kwizart@xxxxxxxxx 2006-10-31 17:20 EST ------- FC6 are only build on i386 because i'm making a transition between FC5-FC6. I wish it exist an "external built from extras" that would be possible. But i will drop "testing" support on wy website for FC5(and gain support for fc6 in few days i hope...). I also cannot use my signing key for rpmsign. It works for gpg but not for rpmsign, i don't know why! Feel free to mail me for this issues,... You can have more informations about my test repository here: (in french!) http://kwizart.free.fr/blog ----- Thank you John W. Linville to answear this review! I plan to try this tommorrow! The first thought is : if the d80211 code is modified then it may has a good reason. And that's why it cannot be inside the vanilla kernel! Another thought is if a person needs the rt2x00-kmod he probably do not needs another based d80211 wifi chipset module (like bcm43xx, but there is certainly others planned!).So i wonder if it is a good choice to make two differents packages before d80211 will be inside the kernel tree? I will try to investigate with some example... I also tried to make a kmod with the netdev kernel but i didn't riched! any tips? the netdev suffix do not seem to be "in a name"... I also thanks Thorsten Leemhuis for his well-documented kmod scheme! I've read the FESCo meeting about rt2x00 but I have 6days of decay... I expect the approval is for rt2x00-kmod! It is a good news, but the less better one is that users seems to report difficulties to the setup step. There is a manual setup protocol witch gives better results (iwconfig - See the readme) whereas the automatic scripts setup (system-network-config) send the command too fast for the device...I thought it was about miss-versionning between wireless-extension V20 and wireless-tools V19 on FC5. I will see what's happen on fc6 next days... So i hope it can be at least on testing for fc6! I'm also still considering the comment #13 by Josh Boyer. Maybe more info about this when a future testing kernel will avaible. I will then reference a bug about this issues and a kernel-testing! I will try to investigate this with -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
