Hi all,
I finally managed to get my dwl-122 working under hoary on my powerbook.
It's not yet a very elegant solution (just a script which joins the
network - Im looking for something more hotplug like :).) but it does
work - even with WEP which was a major PITA ;)
I'll attach a sample script which has to be configured right and should
run otherwise.

Greets,
a happy Maxi

PS: 
I'm still hoping the devs will integrate linux-wlan-ng better into the
existing tools. Please!! (I'll cry, if you won't. And believe me - you
don't want me to cry. I can look *very* sad. You will never ever get rid
of this feeling of guilt!)
