[EDGY] Support of Atheros wifi card

[Alexandre Touret]

Hello,
I tried to upgrade my dapper to edgy
Unfortunately, as read in several threads in ubuntu forums, I saw a 
problem on my wifi connection.

I cant scan thruough the ath0 interface but I cant connect with both the 
netapplet and command prompt.

I saw the following bugs

and these threads

Should I build install the madwifi-ng ?
Does it solve my problem ?

Thanks in advance
