Hi,

I found from "lspci -vv" that my card is AR5212 chipset. But after 
insertion of card, the pci probe shows the following output. It shows 
that my card is AR5213A. But my card is AR5212. I think this mismatch 
causes a problem. Anybody observed such a problem?

Here are the dmesg logs after card insert:

[  582.564629] pccard: card ejected from slot 0
[  582.927671] pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0
[  582.927933] PCI: Enabling device 0000:05:00.0 (0000 -> 0002)
[  582.927946] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:05:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, 
low) -> IRQ 18
[  582.928007] ath5k_pci 0000:05:00.0: registered as 'phy0'
[  583.036823] phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'simple'
[  583.038412] ath5k phy0: Atheros AR5213A chip found (MAC: 0x79, PHY: 0x45)
[  583.038420] ath5k phy0: RF2112A 2GHz radio found (0x56)

thanks,
Jagadish
