Comment 15 for bug 306719

I tried Alpha 2 today 15th Jan - it still doesn't work and restricted-modules are installed

sudo modprobe ath5k does nothing, i.e. shows no errors or anything at all, so assumed it worked, ifconfig/iwconfig show nothing.

This problem is as far back as Hardy and Intrepid from bug 182489, and enabling ath_pci as default returns to the problem I, and many other users has in bug 287244.

I don't really think this is Fix Released...its not a fixed problem even in the daily ISO's.

Is there a workaround at the moment without recompiling kernel and modules?
