> I'm not really sure where this goes, but after a lot of trial and error
with other posts, I got the patched version working with my Compaq
Presario f750US, Fedora Core 7-i386. As mentioned before lspci listed my
card as AR5006EG.
Sorry as a followup: This worked before I installed the nvidia driver, but
failed after words. I think it had to do with the new kernel. I had to
make a symlink for the new /build file for the new kernel as I was getting
a KERNELPATH error:
{{{
ln -s /usr/src/kernels/`uname -r`-i686 /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
}}}
This allowed me to make / make install the patched source again. My module
still didn't show up so I blacklisted the ath5k module:
{{{
echo "blacklist ath5k" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
}}}
Then I rebooted and iwconfig recognized it. Woohoo!
