Please add support for kernel: CONFIG_ATH9K_PCI

[lulo]

CONFIG_ATH9K_PCI=y

Please add support for kernel: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3135

[WarheadsSE]

Which kernel

[lulo]

last kernel/new kernel/next kernel...generaly from this build http://archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinuxARM ... est.tar.gz

[WarheadsSE]

Kirkwood's

[lulo]

Yes - Kirkwood's - eq. Iconnect

[lulo]

2 months...2 upgrades kernel ... actual release for Kirkwood = 3.1.10-14 and...hmmm...its the same .config (ath9k)...not any changes for ath9k:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '
')#
# Automatically generated file; DO NOT EDIT.
# Linux/arm 3.1.10-13 Kernel Configuration

# CONFIG_ATH9K_PCI is not set

*taps screen*
Did you put in a GitHub issue? Have you tried linux-kirkwood 3.6.4+?

[moonman]

Just compile one yourself, it's not that hard but may take several hours. Make sure to have enough swap and space in /home:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -Sy base-devel xmlto docbook-xsl uboot-mkimage')

I already modified this PKGCONFIG to download all patches and the right config. This is k. 3.1.10-14 version
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'mkdir ~/linuxarm
cd ~/linuxarm
wget https://raw.github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs/master/core/linux/linux.install
wget http://music4dance.mine.nu/Downloads/ArchLinuxArm/kernelath9/PKGBUILD
makepkg --asroot --skipinteg')

or if you are absolutely sure your device's u-boot supports kernel versions > 3.2, jump here

[moonman]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -U http://music4dance.mine.nu/Downloads/ArchLinuxArm/linux-3.1.10-14-arm.pkg.tar.xz http://music4dance.mine.nu/Downloads/ArchLinuxArm/linux-headers-3.1.10-14-arm.pkg.tar.xz')

[lulo]

Th'x. moonman for help me to my probloms to ath9k for my iconnect . Install yor compile the last kernel form armv5te (kirkwoods) viewtopic.php?p=24593#p24593 and probably it's the same bug, identicaly problems, like this viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3135 (my compile for previously kernel).
Can install yor kernel and boot dmesg:

Whot is wrong and how to fix the identical bug (probably for only compile drivers and boot this driver) ?
