Hi,

I tried with a debian based distro now,
installed kernel 2.6.1 and installed the driver.

Now I get the following:

iwconfig wlan0

IEEE 802.11-DS  ESSID:"FLYNET"  Nickname:"pctimo"
          Mode:Managed  Channel:6  Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00
          Bit Rate:11Mb/s
          RTS thr=1536 B   Fragment thr=1536 B
          Encryption key:BF55-DEF3-EFB2-6CF0-4ED3-9CEA-AC   Security 
mode:open
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:0
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

As you can see the access point is not found,
while on windows it works. Also note that the sourceforge driver (which 
I was told not to use for my adapter did show the AP MAC)

I also added the following information, altough I have no idea if it's 
of any use at all

uname -r

What should I do now ?
Thnx
Timo.
