Status: new | Priority: major
Component: ath5k | Version:

---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
While madwifi up to 2.6.22 works flawless on my ThinkPad X40 the ath5k
version in 2.6.24 and trunk doesn't associate with my non-encrypted AP. It
get's the right essid and choses the right channel but never associates
and scanning fails as well:
{{{
$ sudo iwpriv ath0 scan
ath0 no private ioctls.
}}}
The module loads fine:
{{{

0000:02:02.0 disabled

ath0
}}}
lspci -vvv output is:

I can reproduce the bug with the following (Debian) kernels:
