It works fine for a lot of other users, you will have to define "does
not work" better. Maybe with debug like pccardctl info, lsmod, iwconfig
outputs and the such. I have many cards with the same chipset
as the WCF11 including a WCF12 working fine.

Im sorry this is the first time I personally have seen your problems, but I 
have been on hols and working on paid projects for weeks that tie me up
100% of the time. Most OE devs are in the same boat, we do it beside
our day to day job. I can apologise for not giving professional level
support, but we just dont have the manpower at the moment :-(

Well this is going to be an impossible task with you current network
card anyway. WCF11 is 802.11b only/
