Not yet!!
From
rpm -Uvh madwifi-kmp-default-r3725+AR5007EG_2.6.25.5_1.1-2.2.x86_64

I got the message 'opening failed'

so I installed it again with Yast2, removed ath5k and got still the same
message:

missing Kernel device (eth0, wlan0)

so I can't come to the choice as you showed in your screenshot.

> From Jimmy Pierre I learned

ifup wlan0 -o auto
and that reacted with:
Interface wlan0 is not available

Should that be the trouble?
And how would I make that available?
