MrPoet, I do know how to make ath_pci load on boot.[[BR]]
[[BR]]
1. cd /etc[[BR]]
2. sudo vi modules[[BR]]
3. add: ath_pci[[BR]]
[[BR]]
Here is what my complete /etc/modules file looks like:[[BR]]
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.[[BR]]
#[[BR]]
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be
loaded[[BR]]
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.[[BR]]
[[BR]]
fuse[[BR]]
lp[[BR]]
rtc[[BR]]
sbp2[[BR]]
#ndiswrapper[[BR]]
ath_pci[[BR]]
[[BR]]
I also blacklisted the ndiswrapper module just in case (probably over
kill):[[BR]]
1. cd /etc/modprobe.d[[BR]]
2. sudo vi blacklist[[BR]]
3. add to the end of the file: blacklist ndiswrapper[[BR]]
4. Extra credit: blacklist pcspkr (cause that lil thing is
annoying!)[[BR]]
[[BR]]
Now my card boots right up and works great! [[BR]]
