Yes, it's been that way for some time and I was hoping...

Anyway, generally I cannot get the card to work. As in the OP
the dmesg output indicates the card is detected. I did get
a few moments of connectivity in roaming mode using Ubuntu in 
the public library once but not anymore. So I was naturally 
thinking there might be problems with the chip/driver.

On the other hand it could be a configuration problem. 
There is enough (madwifi) documentation, examples and tools
out there to burst a hard drive. Does anyone have a relevant
pointer to what's needed to set up ath5k? I've followed the
instructions about compiling a vanilla kernel but so far
no joy.
