Hi,
This patch is simply the fixed-up diff between the kernel's current
0.13e version and the upstream 0.15rc1+ version from savannah CVS.
0.15rc1 has been out for a couple months now and seems stable.
The major benefits that this newer version brings are, of course, many
bugfixes, but best of all wireless scanning support for the Orinoco line
of cards.

I'm desperately hoping that someone will split this up into multiple
patches...

Urg, yes. I've dropped the ball badly on this. I've done very, very
little work on the driver for well over a year now and the changes
have built up to a megapatch. I really does need to be broken up, but
the chances of me finding the time and motivation to do so are not
looking good.
