Hi, I've been trying to track down this issue for a while. Although the NM + Madwifi drivers worked for a while for me (I'm using Debian/Sid), I've been stuck using the r1500 version of the madwifi drivers, as any newer version does not work. If I use a newer version, NM does not get an IP address from the router (no WEP, no WPA).
The issue is discussed here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=385599 If I shut down NM, I can get an IP address from the router using dhclient. But NM works fine with the older driver, so I'm not sure who's to blame here. Any ideas, or any users of Debian/Sid using the madwifi drivers and NM successfully?
