Comment 30 for bug 152626

Feedback: I've tested two jaunty kernels (on a jaunty system ;-):
 - 2.6.8 patched by Andy Whitcroft (2009-01-30): doesn't work. it reported a firmware download error.
 - 2.6.8 "mainline" kernel (kernel without ubuntu patches) + compiling the at76-driver: it works, really! http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/

So IMO the Ubuntu-Kernel needs to patched another way to activate the at76-driver "correctly". Maybe one can find it out by comparing the mainline with the ubuntu one.
