Failure in Setting up Atheros Wireless Network Adapter (WIFI on PC: FM V-Bibilo Loox U50X/V)

[LeapingFrog]

Haiku-OS

haiku-master-hrev52357-x86_gcc2_hybrid-anyboot

installed on PC (FM V-Bibilo Loox U50X/V) via USB fails to set-up WIFI. In the Terminal, I could not configure WIFI: ifconfig does not detect WIFI. However, listdev knows the device for WIFI. In the syslog, an error is reported in the process of setting up atheroswifi .

I verified the WIFI by rebooting Windows Vista. Windows Vista detects WIFI and routers. After that I rebooted Haiku-OS again. Then, I collected the data and included in this bug-report.
