It is hard to know that the new hal does not break other cards. If you have a card that works with the old hal, and can test with the new hal, give it a go and report on the upstream bug.

it looks like intrepid will switch to ath5k (judging by lsmod on an intrepid install). according to chatter on #madwifi, it should be possible to port the 2.6.27 ath5k ar5007 support to 2.6.26.
<otaku42> "i think that it should be possible. check ath5k-devel or linux-wireless list archives, you should be able to find the relevant patches from nick there. afaict those related to ar5007 do not depend on stuff that's not available in 2.6.26".
that wont help hardy though.
