If you happen to have one of our new 1x1 AR9285 devices (all AR9285 devices are 1x1) then you'll need at least 2.6.29. If you want to start using ath9k on APs with AHB you will need at least 2.6.30 (still in RC series). As usual if you happen to be stuck on older kernels for one reason or another you can always use compat-wireless [2] and if that happens to be a little too bleeding edge we have now compat-wireless releases for stable kernel releases, starting as of the 2.6.30-rc series [3].
