-==== "iwe_stream_add_event" compile error message ==== 
- 
-If you get a series of compile messages similar to "error: passing argument 1 of 'iwe_stream_add_event' from incompatible pointer type" then do the following: 
- 
-Use 
- 
-   svn checkout http://svn.madwifi-project.org/madwifi/trunk/ madwifi-ng 
- 
-Instead of following in the installation instructions 
- 
-   svn -r 3745 checkout http://svn.madwifi-project.org/madwifi/trunk/ madwifi-ng 
- 
-The problem is that on newer kernels madwifi-ng fails to compile on older SVN versions.
