 :00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4331 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 02)
+Thought I have followed the directions of the kernel document,but it still can't find the wireless card,after the google search ,it must enable the following options for the kernel
+  Device Drivers->Broadcom specific AMBA->
+                     < *> BCMA Support
+                      [*] Support for BCMA on PCI-host bus
+And you can find the firmware in the
+   ls /lib/firmware/b43/
+===== ALSA Sound card =====
+Add the hda-intel to /etc/make.conf
+  ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel"
+And config the kernel options fo intel hda,after these I think it should work well,but wtf,it is no sound.I almost use alsa-mixer to set all the values to the largest,but useless.
+Then one day,I use the System->Volume Control,I found some settings are set to mute,that is the problem,after correct,it works well,so strange.
+==== ALSA Settings ====
+Refer to [[http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml]]
+  emerge alsa-utils
+  rc-update add alsasound boot
+  gpasswd -a <username> audio
+===== aticonfig =====
+When I upgrade the kernel to 3.3.8,it can't startx correctly,after google search,need do the aticonfig to generate the /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
+  aticonfig --initial

+Touchpad:The touchpad works flawlessly with xf86-input-mtrack.
+http://dentifrice.poivron.org/laptops/macbookpro8,2/
+  emerge x11-drivers/xf86-input-mtrack
+Append section to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
+<code>
+Section "InputClass"
+	 MatchIsTouchpad "true"
+	 Identifier      "Touchpads"
+	 Driver          "mtrack"
+ EndSection

+===== Fix boot after reinstall Mac OS X  =====
+.Of course,first should install rEFIt,and sync the MBR partition list.
+.Fix the grub command,it is really strange,after the new install of Mac OS X,the sda5 has been changed to sda4,so need update all related partition index by -1.
+<code>
+splashimage=(hd0,3)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
+#Now config
+title Gentoo Linux root (hd0,3) root=/dev/sda4 /boot/kernel-3.3.8
+root (hd0,3)
+kernel /boot/kernel-3.3.8 root=/dev/sda4
+#The previous config
+title Gentoo Linux root (hd0,4) root=/dev/sda5 /boot/kernel-3.3.8
+root (hd0,4)
+kernel /boot/kernel-3.3.8 root=/dev/sda5
+</code>
+And the fstab also need update:
+<code>
+# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
+/dev/sda4              /           ext4            noatime         0 0
+#/dev/sda4 /boot		ext2		noauto,noatime	1 2
+/dev/sda3		/home		ext4		noatime		0 1
+#/dev/SWAP		none		swap		sw		0 0
+/dev/cdrom		/mnt/cdrom	auto		noauto,ro	0 0
+/dev/fd0		/mnt/floppy	auto		noauto		0 0
