download and install madwifi
I am not sure If .deb package support in Ubuntu
also check this if it doesnt work.

It looks like the Atheros driver is already loading. If you want to install the MadWifi driver from the downloaded source. I strongly recommend using the SVN version via Subversion.
You also should remove the Ubuntu package that may be supplying the current driver. It may be part of a linux-restricted-modules package.Paul
