ath5k probs after new kernel upgrade (/kernel26 2.6.34.3-1)

I just did a pacman -Syu and the new kernel /kernel26 2.6.34.3-1 causes issues with my ath based card. Ath5k is the kernel module I've used, and now I get a bunch of calibration errors in dmesg.  Is anyone else having this issue? 

I'd rather not go back to madwifi...but I will if I have to...ath5k has been pretty solid since it's come out.

Do you have an AMD cpu and are you loading powernow-k8 ?

See my post here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=102751

I had problems but I am using ath9k. I partially solved mine by getting the kernel out of testing. Not sure if the two issues are related.

Good luck!!!

Then your problem may be related to this [1]. Try not loading powernow-k8 and check if you still have the same problem, if you don't then you may want to try phc-k8 which can be found on the AUR.
