This is not a device-specific problem. It might be that your
gentoo looks at another place for the firmware. Look into
/lib/udev/firmware_helper.

Hello,

I am getting error when plugging in the 3COM Office Connect Wireless device=

Tried to search the archive, but did not find anything useful.

The firmware files (zd1211-firmware-1.2.tar.bz2) are placed where they=20
supposedly should be:

This is not a device-specific problem. It might be that your
gentoo looks at another place for the firmware. Look into
/lib/udev/firmware_helper.

E.g. Mandriva 2006 and earlier look at /lib/hotplug/firmware ...

Good Luck! Hans.

Thanks for pointing to the udev direction. I have searched other forums and=
 it=20
seems that my version of udev is missing the rule to load firmware:
ACTION=3D=3D"add", SUBSYSTEM=3D=3D"firmware", RUN+=3D"/sbin/firmware_helper"

I will test later once I am back on my pc.

For the sake of completeness, Debian Sarge looks at
"/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware".
