Any help? I've had somewhat limited success with this - I was able to build 2.6.38-2 compat-wireless by manually copying "db.txt" as well as "genregdb.awk" to //builddir/compat-wireless-XXX/net/wireless (yeah, I created it manually) as well as forcing CONFIG_CRC7=y and CONFIG_WL12XX_PLATFORM_DATA=y. "make modules-install" gives me 6 modules: compat, cfg80211, mac80211, wl1251, wl12xx_platform_data and wl1251_sdio. I "modprobe" them in that order, but then I get this error: Compat-wireless backport release: compat-wireless-2.6.38.2-2 Backport based on linux-2.6-allstable.git v2.6.38.2 cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain cfg80211: World regulatory domain updated: cfg80211: (start_freq - end_freq @ bandwidth), (max_antenna_gain, max_eirp) cfg80211: (2402000 KHz - 2472000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm) cfg80211: (2457000 KHz - 2482000 KHz @ 20000 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm) cfg80211: (2474000 KHz - 2494000 KHz @ 20000 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm) cfg80211: (5170000 KHz - 5250000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm) cfg80211: (5735000 KHz - 5835000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm) ***1 wl12xx_platform_data: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel. ***1 Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint ***1 - this happens when I execute "modprobe wl12xx_platform_data". As evident from the above also, the firmware does not load either.

I have also tried to build the latest snapshot (tried the one from 21 April 2012), but things there got a bit more messy - the ti drivers were indeed moved to the ti/ directory, the Makefile, however, after selecting "ti" (or any of the TI drivers - TI1251 or TI12XX) is completely empty. I did a bit of investigation and it turns out that the offending part of the code is in the select-driver script, which executes "egrep WL1251|WL12XX" on the original Makefile and since the Makefile CONFIG_* setting does not contain either of these values for the ti/ directory (it has something like CONFIG_TI_*) that results in an empty Makefile. Even if I correct this and leave just the ti-related settings in that Makefile, I am still faced with my original problem I already pointed out above - wl1251, wl1251_sdio and wl12xx are not built - just compat, mac80211 and cfg80211 are compiled, so I am stuck - good and proper, again. Luciano, anyone?
