I had similar problems when I used the latest madwifi drivers. I /think/ it had something to do with the workarounds patch applied to the version of Network-Manager in Ubuntu. The madwifi drivers shipped with Ubuntu are older and did not support the latest WEXT so a work-around had to be applied to Network-Manager. I think this workaround causes problems with the newer version of Madwifi that does support WEXT.
Your best bet would be to remove the package from Ubuntu and compile Network-Manager from source, the ubuntuforums howto section has a good walkthrough on this. There is also a problem with the way the madwifi drivers report their signal strength, a workaround was posted by Robert Love around 6 months ago (This workaround is included in the Ubuntu package), you should probably apply that patch. If you can't find that patch post here and I will dig it up for you. _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
