Public bug reported:
When installing 9.10 just out of the box, the Fujitsu- miniPCI-Card with
Atheros chip-set works perfectly! - Includung WPA-2 encryption.
After rebooting, finishing the obligate update, WLAN vanishs.
The additionally inserted Netgear WG511T works perfecty.
I'm not the most advanced Ubuntu-user. Reading the different forums, some told
the midwifi driver has been replaced by the ath5k-driver some told not. I could
neither find them in Synaptic.
Uncommenting the ath_pci in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ath_pci.conf as described
in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8199350#5 didn't changed anything.
So as a last try last night i installed the madwifi as described in
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1309072 . (This as a hint - you will
see it.)
At all: nothing changed.
dmesg has reported an EEPROM-Checksum-Error at that time.
[ 14.802423] ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKH] enabled at IRQ 11
[ 14.802433] ath_pci :02:0a.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LNKH] -> GSI 11 (level,
low) -> IRQ 11
[ 14.976226] MadWifi: unable to attach hardware: 'EEPROM checksum invalid'
(HAL status 7)
In attachment i sent all the contents of /var/log - directory. Hopefully
it helps.
Thank you for helping
