I just (minutes ago) got the wireless on my Acer 5100-5455 working with ndiswrapper
under 64bit Feisty; I had tried several times with older 64bit drivers that didn't handle
the chipset correctly, but once I found the correct driver, it just worked. I remember
reading somewhere that the Vista drivers don't work, you need an XP 64-bit driver. If
you go to http://www.atheros.cz/ you get a table of devices, the one which worked for
me was the AR5007EG WinXP 64bit. You just click on the blue checkmark to download it.

Hope this helps someone. (I know it is really off topic for the bug report.)
