If you mean the first one, you are a liar...
If you mean the second one, you have a
When you run dhclient without arguments, it tries to get an ip address

interface. If you take a look at that output with the ath9k module
loaded, you'll see a wmaster0 interface. My understanding is that

Oh, you're right, I guess I didn't notice that before. In any case, it
doesn't appear to cause any problems for me either. It's just an

I would suggest reporting this to the ath9k-devel list:

is reproducible.

Wow. Here I can't do tests since my only other local machine has slow
wifi, but yes, ath9k form 2.6.27-rc5 works fine too (except that
Sorry if I used the wrong notation, that was 25 Mbits/s ~ 3.2 Mbytes/s

improvement nonetheless.
What modules is module assistant trying to build? The headers
shouldn't be a problem. If you've compiled your own kernel, just make

Well, even if the improvement is not great, it's an improvement. So it's
cool given that my basic

This line generally appears when the card comes on-line; if all goes well,
it should soon be followed by something like 'ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE):

I think this message is normal; I get it too with both my Atheros and
Broadcom cards.
Ok, thanks for the info.
By the way, I was perhaps a bit to fast saying that it wotks.

Hi all,
My new laptop (asus F80L-4P007C) comes with an Atheros AR5418 wifi chipset,
which apparently doesn't work well with madwifi from current Lenny. This

Ok, I just tried this one. Apparently it doesn't help.
2. Try a 2.6.27 kernel with the new ath9k driver which is supposed to
handle my chipset.
Looks like it's time for me to compile my first
