My system (Debian sid) is configured in this way: when I want to bring
up the wireless connection, I call a script (if you're familiar with
debian: ifup ath0), that calls wpa_supplicant and wpa_cli, both
daemonized. When wpa_supplicant connects it tells wpa_cli, and
wpa_cli calls the dhcp client. I
I wanted to enable my laptop's (thinkpad x60s) wireless led with the new
debugfs interface, as described e.g. here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org/msg01903.html
I'm currently using linux-2.6.30-rc2.
I tried to 'modprobe ath5k debug=0x0080', but the led_pin and

I'm not sure this is the right place for this, afaik it could be not
related to ath5k directly.
I'm using linux-2.6.29-rc6 and the ath5k driver found therein. If I
perform these tasks in this order:
# modprobe ath5k
# ifconfig wlan0 up
# iwconfig wlan0 essid antani
the interface wlan0 is up and

Speaking about LEDs, it would be nice to have the values of led_pin and
led_on configurable via module parameters or sysctl, as there are some
laptops that mount a card whose ID is already listen in ath5k.h, but
that behaves differen

First of all, I'm not sure that everything I'm going to describe has
really to do with ath5k. My knowledge of the Linux wireless
infrastructure is not so deep. Sorry in advance.
Here is the major problem: suspend/resume. I'm using linux-2.6.29-rc3,
but what I'm going to describe happens also with
