 Atheros card AR5006X (just X, not SX or EX) works under Windows XP, but
 gives a HAL status 14 under linux. It's a PCI card and not a PCMCIA.

 Using Gentoo on my AMD64, I emerged the latest version of madwifi-ng and
 madwifi-ng-tools which is 0.9.2.

 I loaded the ath_pci module without problems:

 {{{
 # lsmod
 Module                  Size  Used by
 ath_pci                85040  0
 ath_rate_sample        15168  1 ath_pci
 wlan                  176944  2 ath_pci,ath_rate_sample
 ath_hal               218416  2 ath_pci,ath_rate_sample
 }}}

 dmesg gives this:
 {{{
 [134348.766876] ath_hal: 0.9.17.2 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112,
 RF2413, RF5413)
 [134348.772352] wlan: 0.8.4.2 (0.9.2)
 [134348.773221] ath_rate_sample: 1.2 (0.9.2)
 [134348.776540] ath_pci: 0.9.4.5 (0.9.2)
 [134348.776797] wifi%d: unable to attach hardware: 'Hardware self-test
 failed' (HAL status 14)
 }}}

 wlanconfig gives the following:
 {{{
 # wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode sta
 wlanconfig: ioctl: No such device
 }}}
 ifconfig and iwconfig gives nothing.

 {{{

Comment (by mrenzmann):

 We should make the hint for WikiFormatting big, bold and blinking to catch
 the attention of the anonymous audience ;)
