Re: [gentoo-amd64] Network adopter driver

I pasted the output of "lspci -n" in http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/

00:02.0 0300: 8086:0116 (rev 09)

03:00.0 0c03: 1b73:1000 (rev 04)
04:00.0 0200: 1969:1083 (rev c0)

It shows that I need the driver "iwlagn" :
8086008a	Yes	Intel Corporation	Centrino Wireless-N 1030	iwlagn	v2.6.38-
for the wireless device. I do have it, and it's loaded but still the
device not seen by ifconfig !
