Are you having driver issues? Apologies for not getting your earlier messages, just signed up. Hi Christopher, Here is my original post: I'm trying to set up a wireless card in my new system. I'm using a card of the same model that is working in an older system of mine. The only significant difference between them is the new system is amd64 and the old one is x86. When I try to 'modprobe ath_pci', I get about 60 Unknown symbol errors like: wlan: Unknown symbol wireless_send_event ath_rate_sample: Unknown symbol ether_sprintf ath_pci: Unknown symbol ieee80211_encap - Grant -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Those are not accessible to 32-bit code. -- If there's one thing we've established over the years, it's that the vast majority of our users don't have the slightest clue what's best for them in terms of package stability. -- Gentoo Developer Ciaran McCreesh pgpbjqFBrkSRE.pgp Description: PGP signature
