I have a preliminary kernel module package that replace the stock orinoco/airport drivers with those from the savannah project: http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/orinoco/
You can find my package at: http://cattlegrid.net/~christophe/tmp/ I should update the source but the current one should work with any 2.4 and 2.6 kernel. I currently use it with 2.6.5-mc1.
