Tried that 2.6.8 (and 2.6.11) kernel but the damn card does not work. It 
seems that there is a small difference between the drivers I tried 
yesterday and this ones.

Drivers on voyage:
ath_hal: module license 'Proprietary' taints kernel.
ath_hal: 0.9.14.9 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413)
wlan: 0.8.6.0 (EXPERIMENTAL)
ath_rate_onoe: 1.0
ath_pci: 0.9.6.0 (EXPERIMENTAL)


Drivers on slackware:
ath_hal: 0.9.14.9 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413)
wlan: 0.8.6.0 (EXPERIMENTAL)
ath_rate_sample: 1.2
ath_pci: 0.9.6.0 (EXPERIMENTAL)

The only difference I see is that rate.

Is it with madwifi cvs snapshot or something else? I suppose if tried to 
build the madwifi yesterday, so it must be madwifi snapshot 20051012 or 
something..I can't believe that there is great difference for 2 days... 
Any help or ideas?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Darko
