suse11 and atheros5211 problem

Please is there any simple way to get my atheros5211 work
I guess ndiswrapper is the only option but where i can find a foolproof instruction, any other attempts failed.

Thanks

Why not try the madwifi driver ? Instructions here:
Atheros madwifi - openSUSE

Some users have been having troubles with the rpms currently packaged in that repository for openSUSE-11.0. Harryc has rebuild some on his PC, posting them here:

Good luck.
