here is it:

Ok. This helps to runs a little bit more. ;-) Now, the driver stop with
the message :

Nov 14 01:30:59 cool kernel: hostap_plx: hostap_plx.c 0.0.0 2002-10-12 (SSH Communications Security Corp, Jouni Malinen)

Nov 14 01:30:59 cool kernel: hostap_plx: first command failed - is the card compatible?

There is an timeout with the first command (hfa384x_cmd)...
And just for info, I know the card is compatible : I use the same in my
x86 laptop. ;-)

Good day, and thanks for the help.
