Hi tried with trunk revison 4119.

[root@AntoPC001 madwifi-trunk]# make
KERNELPATH=/home/antonello/projects/imola4-lx/linux/linux-2.6.18
CROSS_COMPILE=mips-linux- info
The following settings will be used for compilation:
BUS          : PCI
KERNELRELEASE: 2.6.18.8
KERNELPATH   : /home/antonello/projects/imola4-lx/linux/linux-2.6.18
KERNELCONF   : /home/antonello/projects/imola4-lx/linux/linux-2.6.18/.config
KMODPATH     : /lib/modules/2.6.18.8/net
KMODSUF      : ko
[root@AntoPC001 madwifi-trunk]#

The compilation ends without problems.
Than, I tried to load module on the target board:

 # lspci -vvv
 00:01.0 Non-VGA unclassified device: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5413
802.11abg NIC
        Control: I/O- Mem- BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop-

 # insmod wlan_scan_ap.ko

 PCI: Enabling device 0000:00:01.0 (0000 -> 0002)
 MadWifi: unable to attach hardware: 'Hardware revision not supported'
(HAL stat)
 #

Where could be the problem?

Antonello
