[sllug-members]: need debian help

[Christopher Hogan]

What version of the madwifi driver are you using? There is a thread on
the Gentoo forums (http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-652283.html)
that shows some incompatibility between 2.6.24 and madwifi. However,
it looks like it was fixed with madwifi  0.9.4
