** Description changed:

  Precisely as the title says - I have the ath5k non-LBM driver in use, on
  latest Jaunty, amd64, 2.6.28-11-generic, and I periodically have the
- problems described on bugzilla.kernel.org's bug #12068.
+ problems described on https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12068.
  
  There has been a patch available for ~4 months, which is approximately
  10 lines all told, and simply adds sanity checks to the reset call in
  the driver which causes the problem. It's worked for me for four months,
  and I've been adding it by hand.
  
  Please add it to L-B-M and/or the core kernel package - I know many
  other ath5k users with this problem, and this patch is sufficiently
  trivial that I'd be sad if it doesn't end up in.
  
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=19574 is the patch.
