[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#448306: Bug#448306: For madwifi, no wifi detected

[David]

Hello,

Thank you. Up to the kernel 2.6.26, ath5k does not work (
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=463860), so it is not an
alternative to madwifi. I do not know with newer kernels, because they are
not in Debian yet.

What about reopening this bug and reassigning it to madwifi-source?

David
