Hopping to make life easier for other users I'm attaching the file mentioned on 
previous comments.
This is the result after doing:

alex-mayo...@pavilion-n5495:~$ recode utf8..iso8859-1 agere_sta_fw.bin

After adding this file under /lib/firmware WPA became available I
believe, but from that point on the card was unable to associate to a
WEP network and the following message started to spam dmesg:

Lucent/Agere firmware doesn't support manual roaming

All this happened to me on 9.04:
alex-mayo...@pavilion-n5495:~$ uname -a
Linux pavilion-n5495 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 
2009 i686 GNU/Linux
