I am using latest Maverick kernel, ie 2.6.35-22-generic. I removed linux-backports-modules-wireless package (ie compat-wireless as packaged in Ubuntu). Then I have downloaded compat- wireless-2010-09-12 from http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat- wireless-2.6/.
Then I did : ./scripts/driver-select ath9k (as some parts of compat wireless were not compiling, but ath9k works just fine). then make, sudo make install. modinfo ath9k gives me : filename: /lib/modules/2.6.35-22-generic/updates/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k.ko license: Dual BSD/GPL description: Support for Atheros 802.11n wireless LAN cards. author: Atheros Communications srcversion: 8767105B9B4AB361D41BF33 alias: pci:v0000168Cd00000030sv*sd*bc*sc*i* alias: pci:v0000168Cd0000002Esv*sd*bc*sc*i* alias: pci:v0000168Cd0000002Dsv*sd*bc*sc*i* alias: pci:v0000168Cd0000002Csv*sd*bc*sc*i* alias: pci:v0000168Cd0000002Bsv*sd*bc*sc*i* alias: pci:v0000168Cd0000002Asv*sd*bc*sc*i* alias: pci:v0000168Cd00000029sv*sd*bc*sc*i* alias: pci:v0000168Cd00000027sv*sd*bc*sc*i* alias: pci:v0000168Cd00000024sv*sd*bc*sc*i* alias: pci:v0000168Cd00000023sv*sd*bc*sc*i* depends: ath9k_hw,mac80211,led-class,ath9k_common,ath,cfg80211 vermagic: 2.6.35-22-generic SMP mod_unload modversions parm: debug:Debugging mask (uint) parm: nohwcrypt:Disable hardware encryption (int) parm: blink:Enable LED blink on activity (int) And I confirm that the issue is solved here... -- ath9k driver not working properly with AR9285 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/518818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
