[Bug 310512] [NEW] linux-rt does not support Atheros wireless

[Nicholas Coltharp]

Public bug reported:

Hi, running a Toshiba Satellite A135 with Intrepid.

I downloaded the linux-rt kernel in order to get support for Rosegarden,
which requires a higher system timer resolution than the vanilla kernel
gives. However, when I restarted and booted up with the rt kernel, it
didn't detect my network at all.

For wireless networking, lspci gives:

02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x
802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)

09:06.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)

It's pretty essential that I have use of the Internet (especially
because Rosegarden _still_ won't play sound), so does anyone know why
this might not work? I don't _think_ it has anything to do with the
restricted modules, because the Hardware Manager lists my wireless
driver ("Support for Atheros 802.11 wireless LAN cards") as free.
