Hi
I want to use a D-Link DWL g650 with Atheros Chipset on my laptop.
I have gentoo-dev-source 2.6.9-r6.
I emerged madwifi, and apart from some errors it installed correctly.
modprobe ath_hal works
modprobe wlan works
modprobe ath_pci doesn't work..
output:
| Code: | | FATAL: Error inserting ath_pci (/lib/modules/2.6.9-gentoo-r6/net/ath_pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) |
End of dmesg looks like this:

I searched the forum for one hour, and tried everything. I think I'm simply stupid...

From the madwifi FAQ at http://www.mattfoster.clara.co.uk/madwifi-3.htm
| Quote: | 3.6. I get, 'Unresolved symbols in _IEEE(something)', help!
You must make sure that you build your kernel with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=n, thanks to Joe Milbourn for (inadvertantly) testing this!
Also, Jon Bohlke points out that if you've patched the driver into your kernel source, you need your kenel to have IEEE.80211 in it's config. |

My one is working now!!! HAHAHA 
1.
your kernel has to have:
Modules -->Module Versioning Support DISABLED
DeviceDriver --> Network --> WLan --> Wireless Lan Driver and Wireless Externsions ENABLED
CryptoAPI --> HMAC ENABLED
install kernel and modules...
(reboot)
2.
emerge madwifi driver
(reboot?)
3.
modprobe wlan
modprobe ath_hal
modprobe ath_pci
in this order!!
