Hello. Yesterday I installed Intrepid Ibex from liveCD. At first my 
atheros wifi didn't work. With lsmod I saw that both ath_pci and ath5k 
were loaded and probably fighting for the device. I blacklisted ath_hal 
and ath_pci. Since then my card works. Here is its lspci:
02:00.0 0200: 168c:001c (rev 01)
	Subsystem: 1a3b:1026
	Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- 
Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- DisINTx-
	Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort- 
<MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx-
	Latency: 0, Cache Line Size: 32 bytes
	Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 17
	Region 0: Memory at fe6f0000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
	Capabilities: <access denied>
	Kernel driver in use: ath5k_pci
	Kernel modules: ath5k, ath_pci

Thanks
