Shame on me. I didn't uncheck only "supported operating systems". Now I have option to download new bios.

Hi people,
the ath9k driver is not working on my new laptop, an Amilo PA 3553.
The wireless card, as detected by Windows Vista, is a AR928X.
I'm using, apart from Vista, Opensuse 11.1. The card gets listed by iwconfig,
but the access point is not associated, and the led on the lapton is off.
Any help?

The default opensuse 11.1 kernel, which is 2.6.27.7, but I also tried
other kernels without success, including the latest 2.6.29-rc2
compiled from source. All kernels are for x86_64 arch.

Can you post the kernel log after loading ath9k as 'modrobe ath9k debug=0x00002000' ?
Note: CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUG=y has to be present in your .config
Also, this option is present in newer kernels, so 2.6.29-rc2 should do fine.

Here it is, dmesg lines after I modprobe'd the module in. I had to
recompile the kernel 2.6.29-rc2
because the suse default config doesn't have ath9k debug on by default.

Can you post the debug log after you try to associate ?
Also, the commands that you used, the AP's details (encryption, mode).

Hi,
just to let you know, the ath9k is working now. I just upgraded the
bios and now the led turns on and the wireless card associates
correctly.
Thank you anyway for your help.
