Hi all!

I bought an atheros ar5008 wificard.

I installed Ubuntu Server 9.10 Carmik but the iwconfig or ifconfig don't see the card, only the lspci. i tried the ath9k driver, but nothing did not yield a result.

how can i install the card driver?

wifi card: 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)

motherboard: Intel D945gsejt

thank you for any idea!

regards!

Have you tried running in terminal sudo modprobe ath9k? That should load up the drive although seems very strange ubuntu automatically activates drivers when a device is detected.
