Ben: It's worth noting that some cards will work work with all three drivers. However, the prism2_pci drivers can only be configured using their own special utilities (I don't believe they got around to supporting iwconfig and friends). The hostap_pci drivers used to work as well as the orinoco drivers (see bug #89464 for why that isn't the case any more) other than a small naming difference (although rumour has it they don't suspend to RAM to well). The hostap_pci driver also supports WPA. The orinoco_pci driver can't do hostap mode but has been in the kernel forever and seems to be the default on other distributions.
