I hope a fix for this is coming soon. I bought an Atheros-based card for my new system specifically because I heard reports that it was working well with Ubuntu... but I get a hard lock whenever ath5k is enabled, either as soon as I try connecting to my AP, or randomly within a couple hours after. I have never had my machine up for more than a couple hours without it hard locking, except when the atheros driver is disabled. Since Wifi provides my only access to the internet, it has rendered my new system useless (unless I boot XP...).
I also have the "unsupported jumbo" message from ath5k in my kernel log.
