[Madwifi-users] Kernel crash on modprobe

[Arthur G. <art...@au...>]

Folks:

I'm putting together a system -- debian based.
Due to the fact that we need some stuff newer than the debian packages, I'm
building madwifi from source.

Here's the problem: When I "modprobe ath_pci" the machine crashes -- and
will not reboot, necessitating booting from a CD (and, on top of it all, I'm
doing this remotely).

Particulars: kernel 2.6.18-5 (debian etch kernel)
Madwifi:      0.9.4

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
