Comment (by anonymous):

 The problem most probably comes from the kernel module ath5k which is
 alternate driver for Atheros chipsets.

 Go to /lib/modules/KERNEL_VERSION/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath5k
 and rename the file ath5k.so to ath5k.so.bak

 execute
 depmod -a
 unload the module
 modprobe -r ath5k

 reinstall madwifi
 and you have a working madwifi driver ;)
