Public bug reported:

See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1238766

Unlike the original poster, I needed to edit madwifi.conf.

I had a problem with jockey restoring the ath5k driver after de-
activating madwifi. ath5k remained blacklisted and I had to edit
/etc/modprobe.d/madwifi.conf to restore it manually.

Reason I tried madwifi was connection problems due to bad signal from
wireless router. But restoring the defailt ath5k driver left me with no
wireless due to ath5k being blacklisted after discovering router
deficiency.

I probably would not have been so persistent had I been at home, but we
are visiting relatives and there was no other option than to get this
issue solved. My brother-in-law had all the rj-45 jacks filled with his
things.
