New description:
I am honestly not sure what the problem could be.
I backdated from Jaunty a few days ago because my vid card did not have 3D
support, and I like to play games. My wireless card was immediately
recognized with the default opensource driver in Jaunty, and I was able to
use it no problem.
In Hardy, it is mis-recognized as an AR242X.
I disabled the proprietary drivers, and HAL, which do not work, and then
compiled the tar.gz, went into the folder, and then with the make command,
here is what I got:

And that is it...
All I really want is the default driver from Jaunty to work with Hardy,
because all was well in Jaunty.
Comment:
Seems like some essential packages are missing, which is no bug in
MadWifi. Try the instructions given [wiki:UserDocs/Distro/Ubuntu
#Buildingmadwifi-ng here], and if that does not help please contact our
[wiki:Support regular support channels] for further help. Thanks.
