Re: atheros 5001x+ card (ar5211/5112)

This worked for me for a while  as resume from suspend/hibernate was my
only issue and I fixed that a while ago... but I am embarrassed to say I
finally put the original Broadcom card back in, I finally got tired of
all the Atheros tweaking with Intrepid.  The last upgrade or two
rendered my Atheros card "useless."

Knowing that since Hardy, Ubuntu has had issues ndiswrapper I used the
Hardware Manager with the Broadcom (Jockey-kde installing firmware with
fw-cutter):  It just works.  Curious.

After 2 years of enjoying out of the box Atheros performance in which
any update/upgrade would leave it working this is my solution.

I have used Ubuntu since Dapper, so I know most of the tricks mere
mortals (blacklisting ath5k, hand compiling madwifi and installing it
again) would use and none of them worked to get the Atheros card
working.  It works with a live CD of Intrepid Beta...
