Title:
  Atheros missing from Hardware Drivers after latest Intrepid Proposed

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After Intrepid-proposed updates today which were prompted by update
  manager (linux 2.6.27.11) Atheros driver is missing from Hardware
  Drivers and wireless doesn't work.  I have a DLink DWL-G650.  This is
  my first bug report, please advise if/how I can submit further
  information.  I've submitted this by stepping back a version via GRUB.

  1) Ubuntu 8.10 (proposed)
  2) not sure, I think it has something to do with upgrading to 2.6.27.11
  3) Connect to wireless network
  4) Drivers appear to be missing
