It is, but it is for older Atheros cards.  Mine's a AR5212 and the U6
driver complained about not recognizing the card.  So I had to dpkg
- --purge linux-image-restricted and d/l madwifi-0.9.2 which worked 95% of
the way.  I still have to "iwpriv ath0 mode 2" manually before brining
up ath0 ... but such is life with Linux.  ;-)
