m-a is a standard debian package, just "apt-get install module-assistant"
should get it for you, or select it with aptitude, dselect, syaptic or adept.
Once it's installed "m-a prepare" will setup your box with all the stuff you
need to compile kernels then "m-a a-i madwifi" will get the madwifi source
and build and install the madwifi module. You may need a different driver for
your card.
That should keep you out of trouble for a while.. ;) Hollar if you need
help.. :)
