I went ahead and installed "linux-backports-modules-intrepid-generic", so I now have the "ath5k.ko" file in /lib/modules/2.6.27-9-generic/updates. lib/modules/2.6.27-9-generic/kernel/drivers/md/multipath.ko lib/modules/2.6.27-9-generic/kernel/drivers/md/dm-multipath.ko lib/modules/2.6.27-9-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath9k/ath9k.ko lib/modules/2.6.27-9-generic/volatile/ath_rate_sample.ko lib/modules/2.6.27-9-generic/volatile/ath_rate_minstrel.ko lib/modules/2.6.27-9-generic/volatile/ath_rate_amrr.ko Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0 Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr=2352 B Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- SERR.

I've verified the card is working using Windows-XP, so it's not a hw issue. 'modprobe' shows "ath_hal.ko", "ath_pci.ko", and "ath9k.ko", but not "ath5k.ko" (see below).
#SHOULD I USE GENERIC ATHEROS WIFI DRIVER HOW TO#
I've run 'find' for ath5k.ko, but it's not anywhere, so I'm suspecting that's the cause but not sure how to resolve. The insmod produces the error, 'ath5k': No such file or directory. I've also tried to run 'rmmod ath_pci ath_hal', then 'insmod ath5k'. It was, so I commented it out, and rebooted without success. I checked /etc/modprobe.d/madwifi to see if 'ath5k' was blacklisted. I have madwifi v.9.3.3, which I've tried to install, but I'm not exactly sure how to verify the install. I'm running Ubuntu v8.10 and I'm trying to get a Belkin F5D7010Hv8 (ath_5007 chip) card working. I've Googled to nausea, but can't find an answer, so I'm hoping for some help.
