Not sure if it was your SMTP or what but its busted and I cannot apply it even if I try to salvage it manually. Please consider using git on top of the latest master branch: git://github.com/mcgrof/compat-wireless.git And then please consider sending me patches using ssmtp or something that will respect the form so that I can apply the patch accordingly. For instructions you can read: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Documentation/git-guide You can read the ssmtp section, it covers gmail. > +++ compat-wireless-3.3-rc1-2-modinfo-migration/Makefile 2012-01-24 > 14:27:20.000000000 -0500 > @@ -9,11 +9,6 @@ > # Sometimes not available in the path > MODPROBE := /sbin/modprobe > > -ifneq ($(wildcard $(MODPROBE)),) > -MADWIFI=$(shell $(MODPROBE) -l ath_pci) > -OLD_IWL=$(shell $(MODPROBE) -l iwl4965) > -endif > - > DESTDIR?= > > ifneq ($(KERNELRELEASE),) > @@ -188,7 +183,7 @@ > @install scripts/athload $(DESTDIR)/usr/sbin/ > @install scripts/b43load $(DESTDIR)/usr/sbin/ > @install scripts/iwl-load $(DESTDIR)/usr/sbin/ > - @if [ ! -z "$(MADWIFI)" ] && [ -z "$(DESTDIR)" ]; then \ > + @if [ `modinfo ath_pci > /dev/null 2>&1` ] && [ -z "$(DESTDIR)" ]; then > \ This check never values to true for me. Did you test it? $ if [ `modinfo ath9k > /dev/null 2>&1` ] ; then echo module exists; else echo module does not exist; fi module does not exist So at least for me this check does not work. Also consider using something like $(modinfo ath9k), it looks a lot nicer than the `modinfo ath9k` stuff. > echo ;\ > echo -n "Note: madwifi detected, we're going to disable it.
