> Ah, I suspect I have managed to connect the symptom with the problem
now. The ath5k modules need blacklisting. I suspect that even loading then
will cause the madwifi HAL to be unable to initialise the device causing a
HAL status 3. Apparently, resetting hardware is hard.
I should note that blacklisting the module itself wasn't enough (same HAL
exit status error), but I had to also add those three lines to
modprobe.conf to make it work.
