I have a version 3 card working perfectly with the 2.4.20-13.9 kernel. I
was lazy and used the hermes.conf file included in the orinoco
distribution at http://ozlabs.org/people/dgibson/dldwd/ as 2.4.20-13.9
includes the new driver but pcmcia hasn't been updated to include
definitions of all cards the new driver supports.
