I've got the same problem. Card supposedly supports wireless n but I can
not use it. This card is a half height pcie AR928X with built in
bluetooth that is also not functioning(obviously a separate problem).
I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook Edition on a Dell Mini 10v. I'll try to
provide as many details as I can with the following command outputs. Is
there any place I can donate money to make fixing this and other bugs
faster? I figured that would be the best way to help due to my limited
programming skills. I'd really like to use this device in AP/Master mode
at Draft-n speeds.
