Hello!

I'm not sure if I'm welcome to write to this list or not. I have
installed Debian lenny on my Asus EEE PC 2G Surf and things are going
well overall (i.e. it's running). I've been following the instructions
on the wiki and I've had a problem with the madwifi driver:

I've prepared and installed the module using m-a but when I load the
module (modprobe), I get

     "'Hardware didn't respond as expected' (HAL status 3)"

Other messages indicate the module has loaded however.

Any suggestions are more than welcome!

And thanks to all involved in this project. Being able to use Debian
on this wee machine makes my life so much easier!

eric
