Hello, |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
Thanks for your patience and help. When I started this thread I've newly used |
| 78 |
gcc 4.5.3 (rebuild full gentoo installation). This failed. I've moved bask to |
| 79 |
previous gcc version (4.4.5) and wireless start working (except |
| 80 |
NetworkManager, but wicd is fine). So, I've decided to check if the problem |
| 81 |
was the gcc 4.5.3 and recompiled whole gentoo installation to this gcc again. |
| 82 |
But to my surprise it works. So, only issue right now is the NetworkManager, |
| 83 |
but I can live with that :-) Bad thing is that I don't know what the hell was |
| 84 |
wrong. |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
Thanks for your help |
| 87 |
