wifi%d: request_irq failed

[lukemack]

Update: I have now tried all the boot options here:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions

and also moved the card to a different pci slot.

None of this got rid of the error

I have also recompiled madwifi from source - no help.

sudo lshw -C network shows :

*-network UNCLAIMED

       product: AR5212/AR5213 Multiprotocol MAC/baseband processor
       vendor: Atheros Communications Inc.

This makes me think that this IS more of a driver issue than a hardware one.
