X-posting, FYI for Voyage Linux developers. I decided to fall back to madwifi. Ath5k does not provide some important functions for me (AHDEMO, TxPower, access to Minstrel stats without debugfs). I'll check ath5k again in a next update cycle.
Compiling madwifi has some warnings. But I can run it. Any other experience?
