Re: [Madwifi-users] Help with DWL-G650

[Carl T. <ce...@ca...>]

No, this is not the expected behavior.  Are you sure the kernel was
configured with the wireless options, built and rebooted _before_ the
Atheros driver was compiled?  The driver makefiles use the location of the
kernel source for the currently running kernel, so the kernel with wireless
options must actually be running when the driver is compiled.  Also
remember to do a make clean to make sure things are completely rebuilt
(both the kernel and the driver).
