Bug Description
When plugging in the senao nl-2511cd pcmcia wifi card the orinoco drivers are loaded as well as the hostap. Yet, the orinoco driver is being used instead of the correct hostap driver. The "hack" workaround is to blacklist the orinoco_cs in /etc/modprobe.d/*.
Adding a stanza for the exact manfid ('cardctrl ident' == manfid: 0x000b, 0x7100 ) in /etc/pcmcia/config does not load the hostap_cs driver, it still loads the orinoco_cs driver.
The orinoco driver works but is hugely less functional than the built in hostap driver!
