Hi,

I have ported the driver to 2.4 with the in-kernel PCMCIA
package.

It's a little bit broken (causes all sorts of warnings in
dmesg, and will kill the machine if the card is removed)
but it works once up.

You can get the patch (againt linux-2.4.0test13pre5, but
applies to 2.4.2) at http://www.hairy.beasts.org/wlan-24.diff.gz

I initially intended to integrate it with the wireless LAN
setup that's used for the other drivers, but haven't had
time for that in several months.

Matthew.
