Comment 86 for bug 182489

Hi Tim, and thank you so much for the update. I have compiled modules on Hardy using your GIT repository, and it worked just fine on my Asus F5N laptop. The only thing I had to do is to manually specify the country code for ath_pci kernel module:

# modprobe -r ath_pci
# modprobe ath_pci countrycode=643

During the boot process however the country code option is not passed to ath_pci module, and it fails with the message

Sep 13 14:35:35 mars kernel: [ 373.541177] MadWifi: ath_getchannels: Unable to collect channel list from HAL; regdomain likely 96 country code 0

32-bit Gutsy with madwifi patch on the other hand had no such issues (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/AsusF5N wiki page for details)

Any ideas?
