RE: Ath5k missing led_classdev

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The problem was that inside my .config file I also had
# CONFIG_NEW_LEDS is not set
And
CONFIG_NEW_LEDS=y

And for some reason, it seems that when I compiled the kernel, it parsed
the first line also. After I removed the part that said that it is not
set, I had no problems with ath5k.

CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS should provide those symbols.  Are you still having
that issue after installing the kernel?  The Kconfig for the in-tree
version selects MAC80211_LEDS, LEDS_CLASS, and NEW_LEDS (and by
extension LEDS_TRIGGERS).

I suppose ath5k should be able to configure all of the LED stuff out
like other drivers; I only didn't do that because there wasn't a knob
before and I didn't want to add new ifdefs to base.c.
