all is fine, i just don't know about the ATI video though, because i heard that it has lots of problems with the drivers, but i also heard that there are some good ATI drivers out there...just do a little research on the ATI drivers might help...

I have the same Atheros chip in my laptop. It works OOTB in 9.04. :)
