Subject: [gentoo-user] broadcom-sta and the 3.6.x kernel
Date: Mon, 03 Dec 2012 20:22:53 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <yu9boeaehle.fsf@nyu.edu> (raw)

The broadcom-sta package works fine for me with several kernels up to
3.5.x.  But with 3.6.x it fails.  This seems to be a known problem, gentoo
bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=437898

437898 contains some patches and various comments, but I am surprised
that the current ebuild does not work with the current kernel since at
least 10 october.

I believe several on this list use -sta and know many are running 3.6.x.
What do you do?  I should add that at present running 3.5.x is not a
hardship for me.

thanks,
allan
