Thanks.  Finally got the card detected and connection to the network
also with 128bit encryption.  I stumbled on <a href="/bugs/126220"
title="[regression] wireless card does not work in gutsy, ma311">bug
#126220</a> explaining that orinoco_pci was dropped in the Gutsy
upgrade.  So far as I understand, the workaround I used before
blacklisted the other drivers, leaving orinoco_pci to handle the card,
explaining why I had no detection aftter the Gutsy upgrade.  So I un-
blacklisted hostap, which now detects the card (as WIFI) and handles the
encrypted connection ok so far.  I have a second wireless entry now in
Network Manager (inactive?) as I seen reported elsewhere andI have no
fancy network monitors, and cannot view available networks, signal
strength, etc in the top panel as I could in Fiesty, but at least it's
functional.
