I assume you mean sid.  FWIW v3.0 migrated to testing today.  It
would indeed be interesting to hear if one of the ath5k fixes helped.

If it doesn't help, I'd suggest reporting this upstream at
linux-wirel...@vger.kernel.org (no subscription needed).  It might
be useful to get logs with the working and non-working kernels as
described here:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/iw#Listening_to_events

Thanks for working on this.

Sincerely,
Jonathan

For sure, I meant sid... I installed 3.0 as soon as it went to sid (a
few days ago) and since then my wireless card seems to work properly
even after resumes from hibernation and suspend.

 Thanks for working on this.

I should thank you guys for fixing everything so fast.

 Sincerely,
 Jonathan

Best regards, Alexandre

 If the 'flags' line in /proc/cpuinfo does not include 'pae' then you
 should use the 486 version.

Thanks for the explanation. Following it I noticed that my processor
supports pae, albeit it is a Celeron M (cpu family 6, model 14, stepping
8).

Getting back to the reported bug, I'll try linux-image-3.0 as soon as it
gets into stable.

Thanks again.

It's experimental yet. I think that I can try it when in
unstable... (I'm a newbie and I'm afraid I can't revert things it they
don't work). 

Besides that, the Celeron class was removed from supported processors in
linux-image-2.6.39-2-686-pae, due to the fact it can't handle PAE and
there is no 686 version of newer packages for non-PAE 686 processors
(mine unfortunately is a Celeron M).

 thanks

Thank a lot for your help and sorry for the later answer.
