Hi The compat-wireless-2.6 package is compiling on Kernel 2.6.24-rc6. Now I have the next problem. I want to load the rtl8187 module out of the compat-wireless-2.6 package into kernel 2.6.24-rc6, but I get the following message: phy0: Failed to select rate control algorithm phy0: Failed to initialize rate control algorithm rtl8187: Cannot register device rtl8187: probe of 6-3:1.0 failed with error -2 usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl8187 And no wireless device is created at iwconfig When loading the module from vanilla kernel 2.6.24-rc6 it prints out the following messages: phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'simple' phy0: hwaddr 00:15:af:03:ab:79, rtl8187 V1 + rtl8225z2 usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl8187 And a wireless device is created at iwconfig and everything is working as it should. I downloaded the compat-wireless-2.6 package 1 hour ago. I have got the same problem on kernel 2.6.22. I loaded the following modules: cfg80211.ko ; mac80211.ko ; eeprom_93cx6.ko ; rtl8187.ko -- Merry Christmas Hauke Mehrtens - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
