I'll add that if you are stuck on 2.6.28, then at least work off of
wireless-testing and consider compiling the modules on the systems
that are stuck on older kernels using compat-wireless [1]. This would
allow you to work using wireless-testing and get your 2.6.28 systems a
shiny new wireless system.
