This is also the case in Lucid 10.4, both in my i386 and amd64 machines,
2.6.32-23-generic kernel and at least its two predecessors.  I can
sometimes achieve success after plugging in the device after having
booted up, but often TAIL -F /VAR/LOG/MESSAGES reveals the device as
being "usb 2-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address
XXX" i.e. it is not being recognised properly when plugged in.   Worth
noting here that I have a TP-Link wireless PCI card installed (also an
Atheros chip), that also fails to function.  LSPCI reveals: "Ethernet
controller: Atheros Communications Inc. Atheros AR5001X+ Wireless
Network Adapter (rev 01)", so it should be fine.  Neither of the two
other TP Link PCI wireless cards that I have tried work either.  It
would seem to me that the underlying problem is to do with the rt73usb
module.  In all the versions of Ubuntu that I have run, I have never had
any problems with atheros-based wireless devices, whether PCI cards or
USB, so this is somewhat of a surprise.
