Apparently, the PRISMII cards are working rather well with the Mandrake 2.4.19mdk kernel. There are still some issues I think however. The main problemen I had with orinoco dirvers on PRISM II cards is that the driver has the be rebooted (/etc/init.d/pcmcia restart) after some heavy file transfers (typ. 100MB). This does not happen with wlan-ng drivers. Maybe the current kernel is OK for client systems (but it is not OK for servers which act as Access Point).
