I had the same Problem with my Dell TrueMobile PCMCIA Card, which
uses the orinoco_cs module. I solved the Problem by blacklisting
the hostap driver (modules hostap and hostap_cs).

To blacklist the hostap driver for cards using the orinoco driver you
can do as described below:

echo "blacklist hostap" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-orinoco
echo "blacklist hostap_cs" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-orinoco

If you want your changes to work you have to eject the card and unload the hostap modules manually or reboot your machine.
