Yes, but on the LiveCD, when I load the module via "modprobe ath5k", ifconfig doesn't show any interface except for lo and also dmesg don't display anything about a found device. In the gentoo-system I installed, I also tried the madwifi-ng driver package, but with the same result. > I don't think I can help you any further. Hopefully one of the PCMCIA > developers can.

I admit I'am not very familiar with the community around the linux-kernel and this is my first request on the official mailing list. Thank you very much!
