Since Karmic tracks the 2.6.31 -stable kernels, it's worth reporting
this upstream (CC'd) instead, particularly if it's a regression from a
previous kernel version, using the same ath5k driver...?
Then, it'll be in Karmic in ~ a few weeks.

I did that, too. ;) Hopefully it will be in 2.6.31.2.

Maybe I missed it, but did you actually request the -stable team to
take the patch? -stable helps more than just Ubuntu... :-)
Greg (or Chris or...), the patch in question is here:
commit edd7fc7003f31da48d06e215a93ea966a22c2a03

ath5k: Wakeup fixes
* Don't put chip to full sleep because there are problems during
wakeup. Instead hold MAC/Baseband on warm reset state via a new
function ath5k_hw_on_hold.
* Minor cleanups

Not really a big deal -- still, one email would tend to reduce confusion. :-)

I requested it in Ubuntu and stable in two separate emails, just to be
sure it will be there when I am going to upgrade. ;)
I apologize if I caused confusion or doubled your amount of work.
Maybe I should have done this in one email to both parties.
