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.
