If i was using the kernel modules, then that would be the case.  I'm using
the linux-wlan-ng drivers which are a replacement for the the kernel bound
versions.

I originally went that route, but the orinoco/hermes drivers have some
nasty bugs that cause the wifi card to lock up under heavy load (above
2Mb/s).  I'll note however that if i build the same kernel without the
acpi patches, the linux-wlan-ng stuff works just fine.  Its only when the
acpi patches are in the kernel that the wifi stuff fails.
