Read on debian osdir.com/ml/debian-bugs-rc/2010-03/msg00474.html I can
confirm this (using kernel 2.6.33, and ath5k)
This article mentions version 0.6.10, getting:
Mode: IEEE 802.11g Channel: 6 Frequency: 2437 MHz
Invalid argument
Could not set RTS threshold for kernel driver
wlan0: Unable to setup interface.
and I tried that version and got the same thing, along with the
development version 0.7.1, which would not even compile with the nl driver:
$ make clean && make
CC ../src/drivers/driver_hostap.c
../src/drivers/driver_nl80211.c: In function 'family_handler':
../src/drivers/driver_nl80211.c:232: error: 'CTRL_ATTR_MCAST_GROUPS'

../src/drivers/driver_nl80211.c:232: error: (Each undeclared identifier

lspci:

Any ideas?
Thanks,
