Hi.

>> 14:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5006EG
>> 802.11 b/g Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)
> This is a 2424 pci-express card, we don't support this chip yet ;-(

Don't be fooled by the PCI ID - we already know that these are not
reliable to identify the chipset used on a Atheros-based card. See also
http://madwifi.org/ticket/1192.

I'd suggest Majo to use ath_info from MadWifi trunk, hopefully it allows
to recognize the chipset more reliably in his case, too. The ticket
mentioned above also has some instructions on how to use this tool.

Working on it, but it's still a long road. Getting non-profit status is
just the first step for that, and that's work in progress.

Bye, Mike
