ath5k works with PCI only (that includes CardBus and MiniPCI, but not USB). As far as I know, no existing Linux driver supports AR5005UX chipset. OpenBSD claims to support it (http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=uath&sektion=4&format=html) I think porting uath to Linux is a nice low-hanging fruit for an aspiring Linux programmer, but it's out of scope for ath5k. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
