Comment (by SmallFootprint):
I note that the new ASUS eee-pc is rumored to have the AR5007EG - the
label on the bottom of it says it is a: Atheros AR5BXB63. lspci reports
it as a AR5006EG, with Unknown device 1a3b:1026. The Ubuntu madwifi
drivers give the same sorts of errors described above. We eee-pc owners
are watching this thread closely... :) while we use ndiswrapper.
This is also of note, because ASUS ships a working ath_pci driver with
their system - with hal, etc. (I don't understand all the intricacies.)
ASUS is also not making the source code available.... We have whined to
them to no avail, but y'all, having originated the software that they are
using, would be in a better position to insist on source code release -
perhaps to the benefit of everybody.
