Hi All,

Latest news is I have now downloaded the latest tar.bz2, run 'make' and 
'make install' without errors.

Question regarding the modules it created:

In /lib/modules I jave two subdirectories:  2.6.8.1-10mdk and 
2.6.8.1-10mdkcustom

The latter has a 'net' folder with the .ko files that the installer just 
created.  The first thing the README says to do after running 'make 
install' is to type 'modprobe ath_pci'.  This returns 'FATAL: Module 
ath_pci not found'.

The requisite files are in the 2.6.8.1-10mdkcustom/net folder.  Can I 
just move the files from there into the 2.6.8.1-10mdk/net folder, reboot 
and then try a modprobe?

I'm asking *before* I try to avoid any more unpleasant visits from Mr 
Cockup again this week :)

Kind regards,

Julian

You could try modprobing with the explicit filename:
modprobe /lib/modules/2.6.8.1-10mdkcustom/net/ath_pci.ko
