The only problem I had with the madwifi drivers was getting them working
with wep.
I needed to add a:
pre-up /sbin/iwpriv ath0 authmode 2
to the interface config in /etc/network/interfaces. If that's not there
it wouldn't do wep at all, but it worked fine without it. Nothing
resulted in any sort of locking up though.
I got the drivers from here:
:pserver:anonymous at cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/madwifi
and it looks like I checked them out on 2004-11-17 - perhaps the CVS
HEAD has been borked, so you could try checking out that old version?
Cheers,
Doug.
