Comment 21 for bug 284354

The outcome of discussion on #ubuntu-release today appears to be as follows:

 * We will remove ath5k from the kernel configuration for 8.10 to avoid the race. (This upload needs to happen today, and involve as few other changes as possible.)
 * We will include linux-backports-modules on the CD so that people can install it without a network connection if they need to.
 * We will add a release notes item to state that newer Atheros devices may not work, and that Atheros devices in general may or may not work with WPA; this item will include instructions on installing linux-backports-modules from the CD as a workaround.
