I am using the aetheros chipsset, i.e., using the madwifi. Under the
latest update, the new kernel, 2.26.18 removes the madwifi rpm from the

repository or will I have to compile the source?

I don't speak for SGI in this forum.

Did you see David Rankin's post "Re: [opensuse] BUG: kernel
2.6.22.16-0.1-default Breaks Atheros Wireless [work around]"

At any rate, When the option to install the software was given, in my
case, it mentioned that it was going to uninstall madwifi so I decided
to wait. If you can't wait, it sounds like David's method should work.

Unfortunately, I was one of the people who got deleted from the mailing
list during the last few days. I did not get any of the notification. I
should have mention it in my e-mail.

I update with Zypper and it does not give any warning.
