rt2860 error

Hi all,

Setting up Arch on an MSI Wind U100+, so far everything's up and running with the exception of wireless. Trying to build the rt2860 package through AUR and I'm getting some compile errors.

Don't really have any idea where to go from here. I've tried this via the AUR tarball itself and also using yaourt, no difference through either.

Any pointers or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Re: rt2860 error

The Arch kernel26 (from 2.6.29) already has support for the rt2860, but the driver is a bit tricky. On my Asus eee901 I have problems making it connect, but it usually works without problems when I use wicd.

Re: rt2860 error

Fantastic, completely missed it. Playing with wicd now and am currently wireless. 

Thanks for the help, much appreciated.
