AR242x wireless not working

[eqisow]

This card works in Ubuntu 9.04 and 8.10 out of the box. ifconfig shows only eth0 and lo, no configured wireless.

lspci:

02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)

/etc/init.d/networking start:

wifi0: unknown hardware address type 801
wifi0: unknown hardware address type 801
Listening on LPF/eth0/00:1f:16:5f:f0:16
Sending on   LPF/eth0/00:1f:16:5f:f0:16
Sending on   Socket/fallback

lsmod:

ath5k                 102528  0

If there's any other information that would be useful, let me know.

Edit: Ignore. Apparently NetworkManager isn't started automatically for runlevel 5. Perhaps it should be?

#blacklist ath5k
#blacklist ath9k
