Therefore the message is created by the madwifi kernel module. Pavel, which Atheros card do you have? It seems like your card is not supported by madwifi.

Pavel, which Atheros card do you have? It seems like your card is not supported by madwifi.

I did not mean the output of lspci but the label on the card itself. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

That card is not yet supported by madwifi. If you want to you can try an experimental patch from [1] to get it partially working (only on i386). Another approach would be to use the windows driver in conjunction with ndiswrapper (just google for it). Nevertheless, there is nothing I can do, sorry. Closing as WONTFIX.
