I apologize if my problem and fix is unrelated.

I just upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic, I have the Atheros AR5212 chip,
after I upgraded to Karmic my wireless card did not work, I ran ifconfig
and no ath0 showed up.  In Jaunty it did.

I looked in /etc/modprobe.d/madwifi.conf and there was a line:
blacklist ath5k

I uncommented that line and rebooted and now my atheros chip is recocognized.  
I also previously tried running
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-karmic-generic

so that could be related as well.
