Description

Using rhel 5, kernel 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 64 bit on an HP Dual Core system.

After running modprobe ath_pci, a dmesg reveals: 

ath_hal: module license 'Proprietary' taints kernel.
ath_hal: 0.9.18.0 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413, RF5413)
wlan: svn r4119 (branch madwifi-0.9.4)
ath_pci: svn r4119 (branch madwifi-0.9.4)

There are no /dev drivers for this device.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
