Hi, I just gave the new ath5k driver a go, but it fails for me with: pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0 PCI: Enabling device 0000:02:00.0 (0000 -> 0002) ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:00.0[A] -> GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ 16 ath5k_pci 0000:02:00.0: can't get channels I did a git fetch of wireless/everything branch: $ git describe v2.6.23-469-g4bcbd55 Modules were loaded automatically: mac80211 and ath5k. I was hoping for a better result as [1] lists my PCI ID as "OK", but maybe that is for the PCI version and not the PCMCIA one? The card works well with the madwifi driver (see below). The host system is a Toshiba Satellite A40 laptop (i386, Mobile Pentium 4) running Debian unstable. I can't help with coding, but am willing to test. Feel free ask for any additional info you need. Please CC me as I'm not subscribed.
