I just updated my X40 to -current. I used the binary build from
ftp.n.o build on 08/23/08. The ath0 interface works as designed.
However I see some messages like:

..
Aug 25 09:13:37 wiesel /netbsd: ath0: device timeout (txq 1, txintrperiod 5)
Aug 25 09:13:43 wiesel /netbsd: ath0: device timeout (txq 1, txintrperiod 4)
Aug 25 09:14:03 wiesel /netbsd: ath0: device timeout (txq 1, txintrperiod 3)

sometimes the messages just disappear and syslog won't show them anymore.

The brightness control works fine for me. No problem at all.

right now the machine will stay up but is totally unresponsive. You
can type, however nothing will be accepted. The only way to get out of
the situtation is by pressing the power button.
