FYI, in FC5 since hostap got merged to mainline kernel, all
Orinoco/WaveLAN cards use the hostap driver rather than the 'orinoco'
driver now.  I'm not sure how to force the card to use the orinoco
driver to see if it has the same issue, but that might point the blame
finger in the right direction...
