How well do you find acx works? Development seems a bit dead. There's a
TI 1130 card in a PC I used to use until I gave it to my sister and I
found ndiswrapper seemed to give more reliable reception - it probably
knows better how to tweak certain parameters. But the real problem with
acx for me, at least in that version, was lack of WPA. Even TV
technology show presenters can hack WEP :-(.

I must of been having a particularly lucent day because I also remembered
to copy the firmware files from Gentoo.

Not lucent enough for pedantic English I'm afraid :-(. Sorry, but "must
of" instead of "must have" (shortened to "must've") etc screams out at
me, I think it's even more annoying than "virii"!
