Problems with current host_ap drivers

Mon Oct 28 21:19:11 PST 2002

I have a Zcomax XI-325H PC-card
firmware 1.3.6

it worked fine with the driver release from 5-19-2002, but when I try 
and load the
10-12-2002 driver release, I get this output to the screen

hostap_cs.c 0.0.0 2002-10-12 (SSH Communications Security Corp, Jouni 
Malinen)
hostap_cs: (c) Jouni Malinen <jkmaline at cc.hut.fi>
hostap_cs: Registered netdevice wlan0
wlan0: could not get own MAC address
wlan0: Port type setting to 6 failed
wlan0: MAC port 0 enabling failed
wlan0: TXRateControl setting to 0x8 failed

syslog output:

Any Ideas on what the difference could be?
