"Unfortunately" I'm allready running non-smp and the exact same kernelversion. I tried multiple options when installing (it's a clean laptop so nothing importend is on it) I tried doing the default install (using 2.4 kernel), I tried the kernel26 option which installs it with a 2.6 kernel... I tried the 2.4 and then upgrading to 2.6. I have added an alias in /etc/modutils/test containing alias ath0 ath_pci. I have installed the headers for the above kernels and today I tried installing debian with the 2.6 option... install the headers.. download madwifi... did a make and did a make install... did a modprobe ath_pci and added the alias as mentioned above. I just noticed something in the syslog tho (which must've been when doing make / make install for the madwifi). This does not look good to me really hahaha... Any explanations for this anyone?
