orinoco_* were disabled intentionally by Ben Collins back in late April under some incorrect assumptions. While it is true that the hostap driver is often a better choice for anyone with a Prism 2/2.5/3 -based card the orinoco drivers support two other chipsets (from Symbol and Lucent) which are not supported by hostap - they are not the same chipset. This is explained in greater detail on this page: http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Orinoco.html
The ideal solution would be to give priority (if that's possible!) to hostap but supply orinoco as well for cards not supported by hostap. -- [gutsy] orinoco_cs.ko missing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125832 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
