I see knoppix 3.4 still uses Orinoco driver for my D-link DWL-650 (prism2) card. This is not the optimal driver, but hostap or wlanng should be used instead. The reasons are the gain of stability and features (master mode).
To fix this i had to:
cd /etc/pcmcia
for i in config*; do cat $i | sed 's/orinoco/hostap/g' > kk ; mv -f kk $i; done
/etc/init.d/pcmcia restart
That is, toughly replace "orinoco" for "hostap".
Is there a better way of enabling hostap driver? Is this already fixed en later releases?
