i corrected the ether_sprintf issue in the madwifi-ng code from the linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15_2.6.15.11.orig.tar.gz source package; however, seperate issues still exist that prevent my ar5212 hardware from associating with the new_ath_pci module
incidently, to disable ath_pci in favor of new_ath_pci edit /etc/default /linux-restricted-modules-common & add: DISABLED_MODULES="ath_hal" -- ether_sprintf is in both wlan and new_wlan https://launchpad.net/bugs/54619 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
