What you see there isn't ath_hal, it's the free driver:
$ modinfo ath9k
filename:
/lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath9k/ath9k.ko
license: Dual BSD/GPL
description: Support for Atheros 802.11n wireless LAN cards.
This doesn't need ath_hal. Can you please give the output of "jockey-gtk
--list"?
** Changed in: jockey (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
