Here is the "clean" version:

Here are the answers to your questions.

Kernel 2.6.17-11- generic:

Adept says:

linux-restricted-modules-generic
Not installed


linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11-generic
Not installed

Command line:
sudo modprobe ath_pci
FATAL: Module ath_pci not found.

Konqueror
/lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic
no 'madwifi' sub-directory.



Kernel 2.6.17-10-generic

Adept says:

linux-restricted-modules-generic
Not installed


linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11-generic
Not installed

Command line:
sudo modprobe ath_pci
No output.


/lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic
'madwifi' sub-directory does exist.


I want to re-iterate two points:

1.   I can boot up either one of the two kernel versions into the same 
partition. The only difference I see is the existence of the 'madwifi' 
directory in the older kernel version. Why 'madwifi' shows in one and 
not the other when both version draw on the same file system is beyond 
my understanding.

2.  The problems I am experiencing right now are a consequence of a 
routine update prompted and executed by Adept Package Manager.

Right now, I am prompted by Adept to update again. I will not do so 
until I am certain that my working 2.6.17-10-generic installation is not 
damaged by the new update.
