Based on your lshw output, the driver you should need is called atl1  Try
"modprobe atl1" and check the output of ifconfig -a to see if it then
recognizes your network card.  If that fails, you could try another module
named atl1e, which is a pcie specific version of wired atheros cards
(Attansic and Atheros wired gig cards are the same chips)  Unfortunately, I
cannot verify that either of these modules would be available in the kernel
version included in your distro, but the atl1 driver was first available as
far back as the 2.6.25 kernels and the atl1e first appeared in the 2.6.27
kernel releases.
