Description Martí­n Marqués 2009-01-22 11:39:20 UTC 
Description of problem:
After the last kernel update I'm experiencing problems to connect to my AP. ath5k looks like it comes up OK but it can't associate to the AP. Rebooting my laptop fixes the problem (maybe firmware isn't getting loaded correctly?).

Older F9 kernels work OK.

Can you try a newer kernel? kernel-2.6.27.19-78.2.30.fc9 is in updates-testing.
Comment 2 Martí­n Marqués 2009-03-02 17:17:39 UTC 
I can't recall when this got fixed.

At the moment it's working OK on F10 with latest kernel 2.6.27.15-170.2.24.fc10.x86_64.
