Alright, lads and lasses. You may not believe this, but I got the wireless working.Firstly, I gcompiled MADWiFi from the website at marlow.dk. I made sure to use both make-kpkg clean and to delete the linux symlink (which was present).
Then I simply used KWiFiManager to connect (via putting in the

The first use of make-kpkg in the marlow.dk howto simply sets up the
.config file to match the binary installed kernel that you are running.The second use appends the new modules (in this case madwifi) to thethe existing kernel by building a madwifi-modules deb file you can
install.So although you

I have recently acquired a Toshiba A70. It has a WiFi card: an Atheros 5004X. This is built in to the machine, so I have no need to purchase another one.Now, I do need a driver for this. I have looked, and it seems to me that the NdisWrapper would be the Driver for me. It gives two options: The
NdisWrapper emulates a windows-driver. Maybe you want to consider using
madwifi which would be a native dirver. If you are interested have a
