I finally made my wi-fi card works under SL 10.6.7. System is also 64bit and has got kernel 10.7.3.

1. I search for file IO80211Family.kext located in S/L/E.
2. Then locate info.plist inside atheros package:
IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AirPortAtheros21.kext/Info.plist

Note: for edit I used plist editor

3. Search for line with hardware ID's already inserted
4. add one more it would be ID of your hardware. If you don't know what is ID then you can find out with DPCI Manager http://www.kexts.com/view/370-dpcimanager.html

After that run Kext utility to repair permisions, restart and that should be it.

Works on Lion too!

Cheers

If you are not DSDT based then atherosfix.kext is your solution.

But unfortunately, it still works only with 10.6.5. I'll check if something changes and report it back to you.

I'm not sure about Cartiri because I didin't work with. But I am enough sure that it doesn't mater.
 
Did you got it working on SL 10.6.8??? because my system recognize the card and when you go to configured the card the systems freeze and I have to hard reboot... ;(
