This seems to fix the issue too, but I am afraid there is more to be 
done, as I see

Feb 14 18:33:46 Nokia-N900 kernel: [   88.599853] wlan0: authenticate 
with 00:23:cd:17:86:d0
Feb 14 18:33:46 Nokia-N900 kernel: [   88.781860] wlan0: send auth to 
00:23:cd:17:86:d0 (try 1/3)
Feb 14 18:33:46 Nokia-N900 kernel: [   88.799804] wlan0: authenticated
Feb 14 18:33:46 Nokia-N900 kernel: [   88.806243] wlan0: associating 
with AP with corrupt probe response
Feb 14 18:33:46 Nokia-N900 kernel: [   88.814544] wlan0: associate with 
00:23:cd:17:86:d0 (try 1/3)
Feb 14 18:33:46 Nokia-N900 kernel: [   88.826416] wlan0: RX AssocResp 
from 00:23:cd:17:86:d0 (capab=0x431 status=0 aid=2)

spit in dmesg log. AFAIR this is the first time I see "associating with 
AP with corrupt probe response" in dmesg, no matter of the kernel 
version. Despite of that error message, wlan seems to work as it should, 
so far. I guess we need the driver's author saying on the issue.

Thanks,
Ivo
