No, yast seems to have determined that there are two interfaces.  I can add
another one but it is not functional.  I attached the log.  Tell me if its not
the right one or you need something else.

Something I forgot to include:
If I uninstall madwifi I am not able to use the card.  It goes back to the
previous state with the two boxes grayed out even though ndiswrapper is the
driver I was previously using.
