Hi I'm the original poster.
I have now tried the following distros on my laptop:
Mandriva 2008
Mandriva 2008.1 (spring)
Ubuntu Hardy Heron
Kubuntu Hardy Heron
Fedora 9
every time with the latest drivers from this website.
And today I just tried:
openSUSE 11.0
With the latest rpm from the madwifi website (featured in the news on the
front page) and guess what? Same problem. This is with
madwifi-0.9.4-1.i586.rpm
As usual my laptop is still running the old Mandriva 2007.1 (spring) with
never any problems, (it's on 24 hours a day almost)
The driver on the Mandriva 2007.1 is madwifi-0.9.2-1
I have tried to install this driver on the newer distros but there are
compatibility issues with gcc and such. Which is a shame as it probably
would work.
