Hi,

I've got this chip within my OQO 01+, generally the driver seems very 
stable (thankyou for your work!), however when trying to use WPA with the 
chip the association conversation fails.

Of course, I can provide the logs from both the device and hostapd on the 
other end, but suspect that the answer will fall into one of the 
categories:-

(a) Be patient!  Test it once I've said the driver supports it.

(b) Go off and try and implement x, y and z, see what happens.

(c) Not a chance with this chip, sorry.  The firmware can't send x, so the 
association won't ever work.

WPA would be very useful for me, so would be glad to help in any way.  If 
the answer is (c), ah well, still nice to know though.

Cheers,
