Here at Ninux.org (Rome) we have been playing with Ath5k and PCMCIA atheros cards.
Using Linux 2.6.26 and this patch: http://aquila.netgroup.uniroma2.it/~saverio/patch/ath5k_more_channels.patch we have cards working at 2.7Ghz It would be nice to see the Fonera working at that frequency. I understood I have to put my patch into: target/linux/generic-2.6/patches-2.6.26/ but how to tell the build scripts to compile and add to the image the ath5k drivers ?? thanks for help. Saverio
