Hi Leann,
Thanks a lot for your response! This is what I hoped for.

I will do as you suggest. There were no "oops" messages in any log files. I came across the bug description against the bugzill.kernel (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12647) project which I linked to. No suspicious entries like "kernel panic/oops/crash". ALL of the crashes though end with "ath5k phy0: noise floor calibration timeout" This is how I found this bug description.

I will see what I can do myself. There is a patch at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12647 I should study it more carefully.

I tried to unload the module by "sudo modprobe -r ath5k" but I had to go back to "-i" in order to get wireless working. What is ath9k there?
Thank you much again and hope I will be of any help to Ubuntu and GNU/Linux!
