2007/10/2, Andrew Long < jandrewlong@gmail.com>:
I'm trying to use a Linksys WUSB11 2.8 adapter to get wireless internet
on my computer. In the past, (I think it was when I was using x86, I
have since switched to amd64 on the same box) I was able to use the
at76c503 ebuild to get the drivers installed. When I try to build it I
get the following error:

I've also tried using the atmel module in the kernel (2.6.22-gentoo-r8
), but something is not working right. When I plug in the device, dmesg
shows this:

usb 5-3.4: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
usb 5-3.4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice



Are any of you using this adapter?  If so, were you able to use the
ebuild to install the driver?

Can you recommend another 802.11b adapter that works with amd64?

I've also posted this at forums.gentoo.org, I'll reply to this if I get
a solution there.


Thanks,
Andrew
