I found a problem to compile the madwifi using patchset of Andrew Morton
to the kernel 2.6.25, the 2.6.25-mm1.
The error message was:
{{{

CC [M] /home/daniel/temp/madwifi/net80211/ieee80211_power.o
/home/daniel/temp/madwifi/net80211/ieee80211_power.c: In function
'ieee80211_pwrsave':

make: ** [modules] Erro 2
}}}
Reading the kernel changelog noted that the function was modified. Changed
the source "net80211/ieee80211_power.c", in line 247
from :
__skb_append(tail, skb, &ni->ni_savedq);
to:
__skb_queue_after(&ni->ni_savedq, skb, tail);
And the compilation and operation (I'm using it now) is apparently ok.
I using the svn version.
