madwifi - a Linux kernel device driver for Wireless LAN chipsets from Atheros. A wireless card compatibility matrix is available at: http://madwifi.org/wiki/Compatibility 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 'uname -r' when running that kernel. Example: KERNELVERSION=2.6.27.10-smp 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. Kernel requirements: Linux Kernel 2.4.23+ or 2.6.x series Kernel source and headers of running kernel No module versioning support option CONFIG_MODVERSIONS Wireless Extensions support in kernel v14+ required, v17+ recommended; option CONFIG_NET_RADIO Sysctl support in kernel option CONFIG_SYSCTL Crypto API support in kernel option CONFIG_CRYPTO HMAC support option CONFIG_CRYPTO_HMAC AES support (for WPA networks) option CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES This requires madwifi-tools from SlackBuilds.org.
