These files contains dmesg output from the test with the 2.6.34-999-generic kernel (linux-image-2.6.34-999-generic_2.6.34-999.201005111417_i386.deb)

I didn't get wireless to start working. The wireless LED was always turned off immediately after beginning boot/wake up.

Then I tried again with the stable kernel:

dmesg-2.6.32-22-generic - dmesg just after boot, no wireless available, wireless led is off.
dmesg-2.6.32-22-generic-reload-ath9k - Reloaded module ath9k, still no wireless available, wireless led is off.
dmesg-2.6.32-22-generic-suspend-wakeup - after suspend/wakeup, wireless led stays on, but wireless still unusable.
dmesg-2.6.32-22-generic-suspend-wakeup-reload-ath9k - Reloaded module ath9k, wireless connects and works fine.

With the stable kernel I can enable wireless by suspend/wakeup and reloading the ath9k module.
