Public bug reported:

Hardware: Acer Aspire One (A0A 110-1531)
Software: Installed Jaunty Alpha 3; updated current to repos as of Jan. 31

Problem: As per http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1042075 the
Aspire One has trouble getting wireless working; as per Tim Gardner's
comment in Bug #315056, one should be able to use Jockey to switch
between the ath_pci and ath5k drivers when the kernel issues have been
resolved (which they now are).  However only ath_pci is visible ("This
driver is not activated.").

Note: ath5k was visible in Jockey in Intrepid when using backports.
