I think you should forward this bug to the HostAP maintainer. This should be either be fixed in the driver or the driver should stop claiming that it supports this card. I merely found the duplicate IDs and removed them from Orinoco. I don't have neither the hardware or the time to test 30+ cards... Having two drivers supporting the same set of hardware seems pretty pointless to me. Plus, it confuses hotplugging/automatic detection. Regards, Faidon
