Subject: [gentoo-user] Wireless PCI Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 rev B 802.11 - Driver Problem
Date: Thu, 22 Feb 2007 18:53:52 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <0d1c01c7565e$fbc932d0$0700a8c0@NX6120> (raw)

Hi - I'm trying to get a D-Link PCI network card running on my desktop PC. 
I've installed it and it runs under Windows XP (I dual boot).

# lspci reports
0000:01:00.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 rev B 802.11

net-wireless/ralink-rt61 was masked so I added to 
/etc/portage/package.keywords

So I
# emerge ralink-rt61
# slocate rt61.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.17-gentoo-r8/net/rt61.ko
# modprobe rt61
FATAL: Module rt61 not found

What should I do next? Do I need to recompile my kernel and if so are there 
any options I need to ensure are selected (or not)?

Many thanks, Richard
