All you should have needed to do is make your changes to blacklist the ath5k module, and tell it to use the ath_pci module. Run: modprobe -r ath4k - Just in case it is loaded. depmod - Let the kernel know about the changes. modprobe ath_pci - Load the new module. You may be able to run "depmod -A" instead of depmod, and save some time, but I am not sure that will pick up the change in blacklist.
