  As lak2kl1 says, it does have problems. I have committed a number of patches so far to linux-next but these have not made it back down to .31 and/or karmic yet. I have it compiling on 64 bit .31 (with a lot of bugfixes) but it still has problems with pci+device initialization. I am working on it but also have higher priority ubuntu work that pushes it aside. We are making progress and my next set of commits should have something that I can say actually works to some degree.

WRT wpa, there was a patch upstream to disable it because it oops'd the kernel with a null pointer reference. No surprise there. I fixed a few agregeous examples in the current pci work, one of them in the wpa device setup. Whether I got that particular one is hard to say. How it "worked" before I got it is beyond me... Without WPA working, this is pretty much worthless so it will work, someday. Right now, I've got chip init issues to fix.

Thank you for your interest.
