Yes. The driver is the wl1251 family. As I said in previous posts and 
from what some guys in the IRC channel tried to guess, it seems that the 
problem might be in that the spi interface is specific for any device, 
and in the n900 might be different from the one implemented in 
compat-wireless.

I'm a bit suprised about this fact, but they know more than I.
