[Madwifi-users] am I loading the newest version?

[aldebaran <ald...@ci...>]

I'm sorry, I am very clueless.  I am new to Debian, and everything is
different from mandrake.  Not that I was very expert with with mandrake.
I have compiled the newest madwifi package, I think.  How can I tell if
the driver I am now using is different than the driver I was using?
Here is what kernel says, but the version numbers don't make any sense
to me.
Is this the most recent?
Also in /etc/modules I have added ath_pci and wlan_wep  should I add
anything else?

I should say that everything works very well, except occasionally I
would experience the stuck beacon problem.  That hasn't happened
lately.  I want to express my deep gratitude to the people who are
making the driver and the people helping others install it.  Most
especially helpful is Martin List-Petersen and the instructions on his
web page. http://www.marlow.dk/site.php/tech/madwifi  Those instructions
worked flawlessly, however I am now trying to understand Debian packaging.
