It's not in Linus tree, and will have hard time merging
due to binary-only part.

Actually from technical perspective I like Atheros
hardware. Since it uses *x86* binary part, not
ARM/whatever, I conclude it allows host CPU more
control over inner workings of the card. Interesting ;)

If only Atheros was willing to release the code.

What is your experience with this driver?
What card do you use?
