1 I have a Linksys PCMCIA WPC55AG NIC. This is supported by the madwifi driver.
2
3 My problems are thus:
4
5 - The ath_pci module is not automatically loaded by whatever manages
6 the PCMCIA slots (pcmciautil?).
7
8 - If I modprobe the module manually it loads and seems to talk to the
9 card (the link light starts flashing).
10
11 - When I run init.d/net.ath0 start, it hands then times out when
12 starting wpa_supplicant.
13
14 What am I doing wrong?

16 Cheers,
