 There are two drivers for these particular atheros chips in intrepid:
 ath5k and madwifi; ath5k was claiming to support the Q1U's chip, but
 sadly wasn't working.  madwifi is only available for i386 and should
 just work; we're preparing a lpia version of madwifi for the mid
 flavor.

 Nowadays, wifi should work in i386 images (mobile) and not in lpia
 images (mid).

 Ideally, we'd fix ath5k and replace madwifi completely with it.
