I am running the GENERIC kernel. I can see that the wlan and ath pieces are

I seem to have done everything right, but it still doesn't work.
'ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0' creates wlan0.
'wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' produces no output.
dhclient wlan0 says no link .... giving up.
What am I doing wrong?
First, check the easy things: is there a physical switch to enable
wireless? Is it on?
Please post the output of 'ifconfig -a'.
Until 'ifconfig wlan0 list scan' produces a list of visible access
points, there's not much reason to run wpa_supplicant or dhclient.
