I fixed that, too. It's a problem since the first releases of madwifi for fc1. The problem with kudzu seems to be not only the eth1 config files. Kudzu must do something else, which breaks the functionality of madwifi. Unfortunately I don'nt know enough details about it. The Workaround, which works for me, is: - Install madwifi as described in it's readme ( make; make install) - check, if the line "alias ath0 ath_pci" is present in /etc/modprobe.conf - reboot - if kudzu comes up to tell you if found new atheros hardware, tell kudzu to *ignore* it completely, i.e. not to change any configuration and not to care about it in the future - open neat and create a new interface. With the current version ath0 is listed in the hardware section, so you can easily do that and don't need to edit the files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts etc. manually If madwifi doesn't work, try the following: - undelete the files in /lib/modules/<version>/net/* - run depmod -ae - eventually reboot - reinstall madwifi using the procedure above. > The third thing you can do is edit /etc/sysconfig/hwconfig - and > change eth1 -> ath0 Thanks for the hint. I found, if you follow the procedure above, ath0 is included in hwconfig. Eventually you have to delete an older entry with containing eth1 Thanks Peter
