Good, that's the same revision as I have; except mine is mini-pci.

I don't have access to one of these, sorry.

Thanks.

If someone can help me source an AR9285, I can add it to my list of
things to test once I get the AR9280 support working. But that's
predicated on getting the bugs worked out of the AR5212, AR5416 and
AR9160 support.

I'll post to -mobile once I've sorted out some of the kinks I'm seeing
in the AR9280.
