Hello,
I made the required tests on 8.10. As explained above, the out-of-the-
box hardware manager for the atheros wifi card does not work. I
downloaded a patched one and it worked quite well. I still have only one
small problem related to the network. During the boot process, the
system stops dur

Steps:
- I uninstalled the madwifi driver.
- I removed the ath_pci line in the /etc/module file.
- I upgraded to Intrepid Ibex 8.10.
When I booted up, I noticed that the hardware manager detected my wifi
card, but I wasn't able to activate it. After googeli
Last news (02.11.2008 - 16h55):
I decided to install a newer version of the madwifi driver as mentioned
above. I uninstalled the current madwifi driver (madwifi-
hal-0.10.5.6-r3835-20080801.tar.gz) and looked for a more recent
snapshot on the http://snapshots.madwifi.org/.
Bad luck, the site is d

New update proposed by Ubuntu. It included kernel security updates

Hi Spike,
Thanks for your answer. I read the thread above. It looks like the one
in French I followed. However, I noticed that I didnt' install the very
last version of the madwifi driver. The procedure I followed pointed me
on a patched version of the driver: madwifi-
hal-0.10.5.6-r3835-20080801.
I had the same or similar issue with generic.
I thought it was NVIDIA but now thinking Atheros. I'd enabled on or both
atheros boxes in Hardware Drivers. Locked up on restart.
The latest rt kernel seems to work great with wifi after i followed the
following excellent instructions

Thanks Arnaud for your comment. I guess you're right. It should be
related to the linux package.
Cheers,

I guess this bug is related to the linux kernel, maybe with a
relationship with the hal package update (detection of the wifi
interface). Samuel
