For those bitten by the same bug:
(1) If not already installed, Yast install: kernel-syms-2.6.22.16-0.1
(2) download madwifi-0.9.3.3-0.1.src.rpm from:
http://madwifi.org/suse/10.3/src/madwifi-0.9.3.3-0.1.src.rpm
(3) check current madwifi version if different, as root remove existing madwifi:
rpm -e $(rpm -qa | grep madwifi)
(4) as root, rpmbuild --rebuild madwifi-0.9.3.3-0.1.src.rpm
(5) as root,
modprobe ath_pci && depmod -A
(6) rcnetwork restart (not really required, but never hurts)
That will get you going.

David... I tried that but when I got to # 5, the result was that it couldn't find the module "ath_pci" :-(
(4)(a) I forgot to tell you you need to install madwifi after you build it.
