Netbook wifi, wlan0 and inet6 address (F10)

[Steven I Usdansky]

I'm running wpa_supplicant, but right now I'm on an unprotected network. 
network is not running:

~# service network status
Configured devices:
lo eth0 pan0 wlan0
Currently active devices:
lo eth0 wmaster0 wlan0

~# chkconfig --list network 
network        	0:off	1:off	2:off	3:off	4:off	5:off	6:off
~# chkconfig --list NetworkManager
NetworkManager 	0:off	1:off	2:on	3:on	4:on	5:on	6:off

Looks like you're using the madwifi driver. I haven't used it on my AA1 in
Fedora as the ath5k driver in the newer kernels have been working for me. 
Nothing atheros-related is blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d; /etc.modprobe.conf is empty.

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts# cat ifcfg-wlan0
# Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter
DEVICE=wlan0
HWADDR=00:22:69:92:f3:a3

/etc/sysconfig# cat network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=Labradorite

Nothing particularly interesting that I can see in sysconfig, but I've included it just in case.
