MadWifi - a Linux kernel device driver for Wireless LAN chipsets from Atheros.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE: MadWifi 0.9.2.1 and earlier do NOT compile against kernel 2.6.19 and
|
||
|
|
higher. MadWifi 0.9.3 will address this issue. SlackBuilds for
|
||
|
|
madwifi-tools and madwifi-driver will be updated when 0.9.3 is
|
||
|
|
released.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A wireless card compatibility matrix is available at:
|
||
|
|
http://madwifi.org/wiki/Compatibility
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This SlackBuild builds the madwifi tools, not the kernel module. You will
|
||
|
|
need to use the "madwifi-driver" SlackBuild to build the madwifi module for
|
||
|
|
your kernel version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Requirements for configuring the wireless card:
|
||
|
|
iwconfig -- part of "wireless-tools" package in /n for Slackware 11.0
|
||
|
|
wpa_supplicant -- if you use WPA encryption.
|
||
|
|
-- Available in /testing for Slackware 11.0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE: You can place the SlackBuild and slack-desc.{tools,driver} files
|
||
|
|
in the same directory without conflicts, and then you only have to
|
||
|
|
keep one copy of the madwifi source code around...
