Interesting I also bought an Acer installed Ubuntu Feisty amd64 on the 3rd
partition and since upgraded to Gutsy.

My Atheros worked from the very start on both WindowsXP 32 bit and Linux
64bit , I still dual boot as the only hardware on the Acer that does not
wokr with Linux is the built in web cam.
