Subject: ar5k and Atheros AR5005G

Hi,

I'm interested in porting the ar5k driver to Linux after the recent SFLC
conclusions on the legal status. However, the hardware I have here
appears to be unsupported by ar5k:

01:04.0 0200: 168c:001a (rev 01)
        Subsystem: 168c:2052

01:04.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5005G
802.11abg NIC (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Atheros Communications, Inc. Unknown device 2052
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 168, IRQ 66
        Memory at c0100000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
        Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2

It is a mini-PCI card.

Does anyone know how much work would be needed for the ar5k codebase to
support this hardware?

Thanks!
