I assume you are using the drivers that come from intel's web site
directly, if that's the case you need to patch them to compile and work
on "mortal" systems (they are designed to be used with Montavista's).
You can find the patches in portage and in oe repositories o you can
(and possibly should) try using the ebuild.

Best wishes,
Yuri.
