Thanks for the information. However, I am not able to insmod the
existing madwifi driver, ie. ath_pci.ko, into the new kernel. It always
report that the kernel version is different to load the module.
The only way I can think of is to re-compile the madwifi driver against
the new kernel.
Maybe the best way is to let kernel maintainer from Ubuntu know and
release an updated version.
