Firmware download is a requirement to implement WPA on these cards. The patchset is against v2.6.23-rc5 from Linus' git tree. The complete patch is available at Programs to generate the necessary firmware are available at . They require either the wl_lkm_714/8 sources or a windows driver. See README.dump_fw for more information. The following firmwares download and run on my Dell TrueMobile 1150: 7.65, 8.10, 8.42, 8.58 The following firmwares download, but are not compatible with the current orinoco_cs driver: 9.40, 9.42, 9.48 All my testing done on a pentium3 Dell C600. FW 9.48 download also confirmed on a powerbook using a modified airport driver compiled with a static copy of the firmware An earlier version of this patch was posted to the orinoco-devel list. This version has been cleaned up and updated for big endian architectures. Regards, Dave Kilroy.
