Hi there.

I just did some more tests and I would like to report them here.

It seems that we have some problems with the USB card even on ia32:
after it is configured, I have to issue the command "iwconfig wlan0 ap any"
all the time so that I can be able to download anything or even resolve
names.

With a PCMCIA rt2500 adapter, I don't have such problems when running a
stock Ubuntu kernel from Hardy Heron.

So, it seems that the problem is a little deeper than just some
endianness thing to it.

Regards, Rogério Brito.
