I had everything wireless working in opensuse 11 using madwifi. The kernel version then was 2.6.25.5-1.1 pae. Today I ran automatic updates and wireless was gone. Looks like kernel was also updated to 2.6.25.20-0.1 pae. I know the madwifi drivers I had only works with my 2.6.25.5-1.1 pae kernel. Is there a way of fixing the madwifi problem ?? I can’t find madwifi update for 2.6.25.20-0.1. pae kernel.
Thanks.
How about compiling them by hand? I´d recommend you to use the latest release.

This is simply wrong, FOO-kmp-2.6.25.5.-1.1-packages also work on 2.6.25.20.
However, there are lots of suitable madwifi-kmp-packages for 2.6.25.20 available via OBS.
Just make sure they are “AR5007”-capable (many of them contain ar5007 in the package name).
You can also try “madwifi-free” from “driver:/wireless”-Repo.
