By the way, is it normal that lspci do not reply  that it's a wireless devi=
ce and not only "Netwrok Controller: Atheros Communication Inc. Device 002a"

Subject: Issue to see ath0 after building madwifi on Debian

Hi All,

I'm currently facing an issue to get ath0 up and ready to be used.

I have a laptop using the debian 5 with a kernel 2.6.26-2-686

I have downloaded linux header/src for this kernel.

I have followed the madwifi starting guide to get the driver source and too=
ls packages, I have build the drivers and ath_pci.ko and ath_hal.ko are bot=
h built.

I have used the command "modprob ath_pci" to load the driver (and also usin=
g the insmod command for ath_hal an ath_pci).

But I still not see the interface ath0 using the iwconfig or "ifconfig -a" =
tools.

I have checked using "lspci" that an Atheros card is listed and it's the ca=
se. --> Netwrok Controller: Atheros Communication Inc. Device 002a

Any idea?

Seb
