I do not see the device in this list. Is this card known to be working?
It should show up whether or not there is a driver for it.
For Etch, madwifi is what you want. For Lenny (kernel 2.6.26),
you want the built-in ath5k driver (should just work).
Cheers,
Kelly Clowers

Oops, lets keep this on the list.
You could upgrade to Lenny (testing), or you could compile
your own kernel, or you might be able to use say, an Ubuntu
kernel. Or stay with 2.6.18 and use madwifi. Lenny has been
frozen pending release for a while now, so it should be safe
to use.
My first choice would be to upgrade, and my second would be
to use madwifi, but that is just me. It is up to you.
