The above are the "old" kernel Aironet drivers.

These are the "new" kernel Aironet drivers.
These files are unrelated to those above.
These files appear to be newer than either those in pcmcia-cs
or those in the latest (1.5.000) Cisco driver, which are based on
the same original code.
The advantage of the pcmcia-cs drivers is that they work with
earlier kernels.
The advantage of the Cisco drivers is that they are Cisco-approved [tm].
