I have it working with the $99 IBM tri-band card with ... probably kernel
2.4.22 or 2.4.23. At least, all the modules insert okay, and if I
broadcast the ESSID and don't use WEP then it works for me on 802.11b. I
didn't do anything special, though. You're using the latest CVS version,
not the August tarball?
