madwifi - a Linux kernel device driver for Wireless LAN chipsets from Atheros.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A wireless card compatibility matrix is available at:

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default the script will build the madwifi kernel module for the currently
|
|
|
|
|
running kernel. If you would like to build the madwifi driver for a different
|
|
|
|
|
kernel version, two things are required:
|
|
|
|
|
1) kernel source in /usr/src/linux-<version>
|
|
|
|
|
2) run the script as: KERNELVERSION=<version> sh madwifi-driver.SlackBuild
|

|
|
|
In place of <version> use only the version as you would see from the output of
|
2010-05-13 00:37:07 +02:00
|
|
|
'uname -r' when running that kernel. Example: KERNELVERSION=2.6.31.1-smp
|

|
|
|
|
2010-05-11 15:01:30 +02:00
|
|
|
The kernel module will then be installed to /lib/modules/<version>/....
|
|
|
|
|
You may use this SlackBuild to build the madwifi module for as many *different*
|
|
|
|
|
kernels as you like and they can be installed alongside each other without
|
|
|
|
|
conflict.

This requires madwifi-tools from SlackBuilds.org.
