@Chase Douglas: I also believe that bringing the newer version from 2.6.34 into linux-backports-modules-wireless is the best option. We saw from this bug that none of the solutions actually fixed most of the bugs reported, so it's hard to select the best option.

Even the upstream code is in a dedicated situation. The community sent many new patches to the driver already, but the vendor also released a newer version, so currently we have more than one development branch for it.

Hopefully the upstream one will get better and usable for everyone, but no one can guaranty the correct support for this chip at the moment.
