both come out errors why?Did i use the wrong driver?
any info you need please tell me.(sorry it's really long,waste the store space of the community .)

The kernel devs have broken compatibility for older network drivers, which is why you're getting the build errors with madwifi. There's a snapshot on the main page of http://madwifi-project.org/ for 2.6.25 and later kernels which claims to have resolved the compilation issues, I suggest you try that.

thanks to chang
your suggestion works, the problem is my carefulness.
