[Grml] madwifi for grml-small

Hello everyone,

Last night I installed grml-small on my laptop to give it a spin (had
been using the larger version of grml). I needed to install madwifi
drivers, but none were available. uname -r tells me that I'm running
2.6.26, but the madwifi modules available are of 2.6.23 and earlier.
module-assistant was not able to build the modules b/c the source was
not available in the repos.

Can you give me any tips as to how to get this working? It's not a
major issue at all, I can always go back to the larger version, but it
still would be nice to know where I'm going wrong.

Thanks all!

Josh

madwifi-modules-2.6.26-grml is available via grml-testing.
I just copied it to grml-stable repository as well so you don't have
to enable the grml-testing repository.
