I'm using the built-in a/b card in a thinkpad T40
that corresponds to this output from lspci
02:02.0 Ethernet controller: Unknown device 168c:0012 (rev 01)
Subsystem: Unknown device 17ab:8310
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 168, IRQ 6
Memory at c0210000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2
I don't use the card in AP mode - but it works find in client mode.
Some minor bugs - eg. can't switch aps after you've fixed the ap except
by unloading/reloading the driver.
Survives suspend resume nicely
