I have not installed the madwifi specific kernel stuff (kdml and
hal-kdml) from atrpms. I have installed with wpa rpms.
And my Atheros card is working with almost no work on my part (other
than runing wpa_supplicant as a deamon).
Here is the results from lspci and lsmod. There is ONE madwifi rpm
installed:
madwifi-0.9.2.1-2.el5.rf.i386.rpm
ath_pci 86180 0
ath_rate_sample 16896 1 ath_pci
wlan 172764 4 wlan_scan_sta,ath_pci,ath_rate_sample
ath_hal 195280 3 ath_pci,ath_rate_sample
So you are obviously using madwifi after all to drive the card. :)
But where did it come from?????
I did not install the kernel driver rpms.
madwifi-0.9.2.1-2.el5.rf.i386.rpm follows a different method that
creates them on your system. There are pros and cons to using prebuilt
binaries vs your own custom kernel modules.
How do tell where these things came from and what method they use???
One of my 'issues' or feature requests is to know which repo an rpm came from provided it was installed via yum or yumex.
Obviously if i downloaded the rpm and 'manually installed' directly with rpm, it is my job to track where I got the rpm from....
