the other linux netbook with atheros wifi card can connect the hidden
network, after connected it looks like:
# iwconfig ath0
Warning: Driver for device ath0 has been compiled with version 22
of Wireless Extension, while this program supports up to version 20.
Some things may be broken...

it has good link quality with "94/94", I've tried the same wpa
configuration on the linux with b43, it is always scanning, with no
results, and scanning; someone know how to make it work with this
hidden and auth-required wifi?
Thanks a lot,
