I replied to that post. In a nutshell: madwifi's interface changed
from what is today known as madwifi-old to madwifi-ng, where the
latter is now the offcial madwifi. Check madwifi.org for further
details/differences between the two branches.

I'm not sure I understand, you mean that madwifi hides away your wired
ethX interfaces? That shouldn't happen, if it does it's bug. :/

Axel

I apologize but I missed your reply that clarifies everything....
About the second point, when I installed from a different repository
than yours, I found eth1 and ath0 in the network configuration tool.
By your repo, I found only ath0, as it should be.
