Hi! 
I'm having a problem installating hostap because I'm using a dlink card
dwl-650+ and it works with the acx100 driver. the problem is that I have
to load the acx100 manually while the hostap requires some settings in /ect/network/interfaces.
but if I load those modules manually this file is skipped!
I also get an error if I try to put the wlan0 up:

# ifup wlan0
insmod: /lib/modules/2.4.25/net/p80211.o: No such file or directory
insmod: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.25/net/p80211.o failed
insmod: /lib/modules/2.4.25/pcmcia/p80211.o: No such file or directory
insmod: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.25/pcmcia/p80211.o failed
insmod: insmod p80211 failed
Failed to load p80211.o.
run-parts: /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/linux-wlan-ng-pre-up exited with return
code 1

I think there's a kind of conflict between the acx100 and the hostap driver.Does
anybody know how can I separate this two modules or solve it somehow? 
thanks a lot
