So if you have an Atheros chipset and want to help test the newer ath5k driver, go to: http://elrepo.org/linux/testing/el5/i386/RPMS/ or http://elrepo.org/linux/testing/el5/x86_64/RPMS/ and try the kmod-ath5k and kmod-mac80211 packages for your kernel.

Could you send your remarks to the Red Hat bug-report so that the developers can follow-up on this. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=49 Thanks for helping all Atheros users :) -- -- dag wieers, d...@centos.org, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors] ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Mine is ATT Plug-n-share I also have a PCI version I could test on my x86_64 though I'd have to find where I put it (I ran ethernet into my home office years ago) if x86_64 really isn't much untested.
