hostapd problem with wpa


Hello, I have a PCI card with an Atheros chipset so I use the madwifi-ng-r2197 driver in ap mode. It works fine but is unsecured, so I tried to use hostapd. I use debian sarge with 2.6.8 kernel
Here is my hostapd.conf:

interface=ath0
bridge=br0
driver=madwifi
logger_syslog=-1
logger_syslog_level=2
logger_stdout=-1
logger_stdout_level=2
debug=0
dump_file=/tmp/hostapd.dump
ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd
ctrl_interface_group=0
ssid=my_net
macaddr_acl=1
accept_mac_file=/etc/hostapd/hostapd.accept
auth_algs=3
eapol_key_index_workaround=0
#eap_server=0
wpa=3
wpa_passphrase=pass
wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
wpa_pairwise=TKIP CCMP

The output of hostapd -dd hostapd.conf is:
Configuration file: hostapd.conf
Configure bridge br0 for EAPOL traffic.
madwifi_set_iface_flags: dev_up=0
Using interface ath0 with hwaddr 00:11:6b:61:7a:0a and ssid 'my_net'

Can someone help me with this?
