Using driver 0.3.9
Kernel 2.6.12
SMC2532w-b card

If card is flashed to 1.7.4, driver fails to load when the card is
inserted.  When flashed to 1.5.6 it will insert fine with HostAP.

Then if I do a RAM DL of 1.7.4 (from 1.5.6), the card still functions
fine.  The card works fine if flashed to 1.7.4 when using the wlan-ng
drivers, so that makes it hard to believe its the card.

I have tried different sources for 1.7.4, verfied the MD5s to make sure
that is not the problem.

What is the difference between 1.5.6 and 1.7.4 as far as card insertion
goes?

If anyone has any suggestions, it would be appreciated.

Thanks
