ath5k is the eventual replacement for acp_pci.  This is not a
resolution, it merely replaces the development driver with the older,
soon-to-be-antiquated solution.

Also, "/etc/modprobe.d/madwifi" does not exist without the installation
of the package "madwifi-tools."  Ideally, the driver should operate
without the presence of extra management/debugging tools.

I tried your solution, and continued to receive the same problem.  In
order for me to use my hardware, I have to compile "madwifi-
hal-0.10.5.6-r3861-20080903.tar.gz", also available from the madwifi
project.  This is an older version that still includes the closed-source
Atheros HAL.  Also, I have to recompile the driver every time the kernel
is updated.

There has to be a better way.
