Hello All, I've just upgraded my Kernel with Genkernel to kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.15-gentoo-r1 from kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.13-gentoo-r5. With my previous kernel I had installed net-wireless/ieee80211-1.1.9 and net-wireless/ipw2200-1.0.10. Does my new kernel support wireless directly or should I disable the IEEE802.11 subsystem?. Basically I don't know what to do ... When I ran emerge --update --deep --newuse world I got the following error. -- Thanks, Richard
