When you install usb-rndis-lite (after checking it out with svn and compiling it), you may find that the modules have the same name as those which were compiled from kernel sources. usb-rndis-lite will put its module in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/extra, I think. Because the kernel puts its own modules in /lib/modules/.../kernel/driver/usb/net (or similar, can't check right now), there will be a naming collision. This might lead into a situation where the new usb-rndis-lite drivers are never loaded because the kernel's own drivers are loaded first. However, the kernel's own driver don't support WM5 right now, AFAIK. > Other thing, I use dccm bc occm isn't provided by Gentoo distrib... odccm will be available from subversion.

Maybe you'll run into problems with the concurrent versions of librapi/libsynce/synce. Just ask if you run into problems during following the wiki's recipe! -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
