Probably someone more knowledgable may be able to spot something amiss
in the outputs, but nothing jumped out at me. Do you know if the
wireless network you're trying to connect to is encrypted? WEP or WPA?
Have you tried network-manager? I don't think network manager is a
great choice for a desktop (you're only connected while logged in),
but it will at least tell you if the card is being recognized and
working correctly. I posted my configuration (also for an atheros
chipset) a few days ago in this thread:

That might give you some clues.
