Note! I attach lsmod, lspci, dmesg outputs from Ubuntu 8.10 running
2.6.29.1 kernel!

You encouraged me to perform further tests with newest stable kernel on
this machine and a nice surprise occurred - it works just fine! However
I cannot use ath5k with my wireless pc-card :( As far as I notice
2.6.29.1 doesn't support ath_pci module anymore.

Could you please enclose your /var/log/messages and /var/log/dmesg ?

You can try the following method with your 9.04, but this obviously can't be a 
solution during clean install...
 
sudo apt-get install build-essential
### wget 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/w/wireless-crda/wireless-crda_1.7_i386.deb
wget 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.29.1/linux-headers-2.6.29-02062901_2.6.29-02062901_all.deb
wget 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.29.1/linux-headers-2.6.29-02062901-generic_2.6.29-02062901_i386.deb
wget 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.29.1/linux-image-2.6.29-02062901-generic_2.6.29-02062901_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i wireless*.deb
sudo dpkg -i linux*.deb

### - applies to Ubuntu 8.10 only.

By the way - it is great to know someone is still using this great
notebook :)
