Yes. It can be found here:
http://www.linux2go.dk/ubuntu/pool/main/m/madwifi-ng-default/madwifi-ng-default_1.0_all.deb

also, the patched wpasupplicant and NetworkManager:
http://www.linux2go.dk/ubuntu/pool/main/n/network-manager/network-manager_0.6.2-0ubuntu7linux2go2_i386.deb
http://www.linux2go.dk/ubuntu/pool/main/w/wpasupplicant/wpasupplicant_0.4.8-3ubuntu1.1linux2go1_i386.deb

the really easy way is to add:

deb http://www.linux2go.dk/ubuntu dapper main

to your sources.list and run:

$ sudo apt-get install madwifi-ng-default wpasupplicant network-manager

IMPORTANT: For these packages to work, you need to have the
linux-restricted-modules installed and NOT be using the madwifi-ng
drivers from SVN as there are naming differences.

Cheers!
