[Bug 521967] Re: support for new atheros wifi chipset

[Rolf Leggewie]

khuner, it doesn't really help to nominate for all releases out there
when this isn't even yet officially fixed in lucid.

To answer your question, yes, you can compile the driver yourself until
Ubuntu fixes this issue officially (hopefully soon).  The upstream
ticket and especially http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download
should have all the information you need.  But it does take some skill
to resolve issues should they occur at compile time.  Sorry, I can't
offer support for that.  But I can tell you that I've been compiling
this on my own and successully running the driver in lucid for quite a
few kernel updates now.

BTW, I have the same netbook as you.  But I think as far as this ticket
is concerned all the 100x pinetrail netbooks from ASUS are the same.
