[Voyage-linux] Voyage linux ath5k driver support?, full power for SR5?

[Beat Meier]

Ok have found that ath5k modules is installed and usable at least for 
cm9 cards with sr5 it does not work
at least wpa_supplicant with wpa-psk is not working with sr5 :-(

Now I have noticed that the signal with ath5k is very very bad.

I have a signal of -30dbm (instead of -18dbm) with ath5k driver on 
client running wpa_supplicant and server has madwifi
running hostap. On both sites it shows me a signal of -30dbm so the 
signal is really -30dbm, not only a display
problem with ath5k ...
With madwifi client I have a signal of -18dbm as it should be ...
Is this a know issue?

And btw: is there no way to show the signal apart from iwconfig with 
ath5k like wlanconfig wlan0 list in madwifi?
