Comment (by proski):
When you get "Hardware didn't respond as expected" it's a sign that you
have some other driver that tried to initialize the chipset and failed.
Even the new HAL cannot recover the card after that. The system needs to
be rebooted. But first make sure that no other version of MadWifi is
installed. "make install" for MadWifi with the new HAL should remove
older modules.
I checked Ubuntu 8.04 i386. It turns out it has MadWifi 0.9.4 installed
as part of Linux restricted modules (linux-restricted-
modules-2.6.24-18-generic). But installing the new MadWifi with "make
install" removed those modules. The driver was working fine after the
reboot. I was using NetworkManager and an AP with WPA2.
