Future development is with ath5k; I surmise it's more likely to work

the latest.
My chipset isn't supported in either the madwifi or ath5k stable
versions. It's a lot easier to do an svn checkout of madwifi than to do
the git kernel compile needed for ath5k. That said, I do look forward
to the day when my chipset is supported in ath5k. Maybe then, NM will
play nicely again.
nm has many problems unrelated to this.
No fault of the developers, the main things work for many people, but
there are many cases where it doesn't. Two network interfaces for one.
