FYI: Card works fine in my HP DV6809 since 8/25/08 when following Madberry's process.
 [ http://madberry.org/2008/08/how-to-get-atheros-ar242x-wireless-to-work-2/ ]. Thanks much again!.

Re-install has worked on every kernel, including latest .21-generic. BUT, I do not need/install Windows Driver envelope [Ndiswrapper?]. Is that where other problems lie?

I have the madwifi folder. To re-install on new kernel:
* Disable HAL and 802.11 device. ...System-Admin-Hardware Drivers...
* sudo apt-get update && sudo aptitude install build-essential
make clean
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe ath_pci
sudo modprobe wlan-scan-sta
* re-enable HAL and 802.11.
* restart

Hope this helps!
