I don't see any problems with orinoco_pci in Linux 2.6.20.  It looks
more like a hardware problem or some very old firmware.

Just to exclude possible problems with the driver that I cannot
reproduce, please try hostap_pci.  It supports all devices supported by
orinoco_pci.

You may want to send further replies to
orinoco-devel@...ts.sourceforge.net where it would be seen by those
actually using the driver.
