Installing Madwifi (atheros drivers) into Debian Etch.
Hi,
Just been following the instructions to install the madwifi driver, but
it doesn't compile on the final step. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I'm very new to debian, but experienced with Linux. If anyone needs more
information, please ask!
I've tried modprobing the ath_pci driver after this, on the chance that
it's been built, but it hadn't. It's a clean install, so there shouldn't
be any major cruft on the system.
Details below,
Thanks Jim
# apt-get update
# apt-get install madwifi-source # apt-get install madwifi-tools
