Adding madwifi support to easy peasy
As descibed here we have to install the kernel headers first:
sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) subversion
Now we can add the madwifi drivers for the wlan chipset:
cd /usr/local/src svn checkout http://madwifi-project.org/svn/madwifi/trunk madwifi cd madwifi make sudo make install sudo modprobe ath_pci
You can find some additional Information of putting madwifi into a kernel at this page. (German)
We have to do some additional configuration first we have to add the module to /etc/modules:
echo "ath_pci" >> /etc/modules
I added some scripts following the howto.
