FYI: Card works fine in my HP DV6809 since 8/25/08 when following Madberry's process. [ http://madberry.org/2008/08/how-to-get-atheros-ar242x-wireless-to-work-2/ ]. Thanks much again!.
Re-install has worked on every kernel, including latest .21-generic. BUT, I do not need/install Windows Driver envelope [Ndiswrapper?]. Is that where other problems lie? I have the madwifi folder. To re-install on new kernel: * Disable HAL and 802.11 device. ...System-Admin-Hardware Drivers... * sudo apt-get update && sudo aptitude install build-essential make clean make sudo make install sudo modprobe ath_pci sudo modprobe wlan-scan-sta * re-enable HAL and 802.11. * restart Hope this helps! -- Atheros wireless (AR5007) not working on various laptops, including the ASUS Eee PC https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182489 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu EEEPC, which is a direct subscriber.
