Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-backports
I need the ath5k from Linux backport modules because the 2.6.28 crashes my system regularly and looses packets. With the default module from 2.6.28 access points using the European wlan channels 12 and 13 are shown but not with the backport module.
If I use the 2.6.29 kernel from Ubuntu mainline repository the channels are also shown.

The problem could be fixed through the two follow commands but of course this is no distribution fix. I don't know how the standard modules handles this.
