Question Macchanger not working with ath0

Sorry if this has been asked before. I searched here and google but I can't find it.

Before I installed the madwifi driver for my atheros card macchanger worked just fine. But now I get this...

Code:
root@bt4-laptop:~# ifconfig
ath0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:25:56:0b:22:62
          UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
