Hi there !
I had been using madwifi for years without any problems until now.
Recently, I replaced my mobo with ASUS Commando and 4Gb of RAM. After the
first boot, everything works fine, but I´m able to see only 2Gb of RAM.
After some research, I found that I need to enable Memory Remapping in
BIOS in order to see all the 4Gb of RAM. After that, in every single boot,
kernel hangs when running udev. If I disabled memory remapping in BIOS,
I´m able to boot again. Then, I try to remove each module trying to
identify which one is causing the problem. After remove madwifi completely
I was able to boot WITH Memory Remapping enabled. I´m running kernel
2.6.20-1.2320_FC5xen0 (64bits) with madwifi 0.9.3.3 (locally compiled).
Distro is FC5-x86_64. Below follow lspci:

I´m using the LAST Mobo BIOS. Processor is Intel Q6700 (kernel has SMP
enabled).
Any ideas ?
