you can try using the drivers from the airo-linux CVS. check out
airo-linux.sourceforge.net for info on how to checkout the module. There
was a few posts a week or two ago on how to add the module to your
kernel source tree and compile it.

i've been hacking the airo_mpi.c driver to get it working using
2.6.0-test1, and i've got things working pretty well, except for WEP
(which seems to be broken in general in the CVS of the airo drivers). If
you want to muck with that, i can send my latest patch which applies to
2.6.0-test1 (and -mm1 or -mm2 if you're using that patchset).
