the only thing I can think of is booting a different kernel maybe??
(edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to show list of kernels at boot time, you'll
see what I mean if you look at the file) I had atheros card problems
several times during hardy development and tried different kernels until
I found one that worked!

You ruled out the alt f2 or whatever key combo it was that turned
wireless on and off right?


I have tried both kernels available 2.6.22-14-generic & 2.6.24-18-generic
with the same results. Fn and F2 key combination enables wireless in MS and
at least turns the indicator light on in Ubuntu.

Oh and John, Kwifimanger couldn't find the card either.

Thanks again.
