Similar to those documented in Bug #93573 in linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu)
Download and recompile acx100_usb driver from
http://acx100.sourceforge.net/
Recompile instructions from http://acx100.sourceforge.net/wiki/ACX
# cd /usr/src
# mkdir acx-20080210
# wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/acx100/acx-20080210.tar.bz2
# tar xjvf acx-20080210.tar.bz2
# cd acx-20080210
# make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd`
# make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd` modules_install
By default, the acx driver searches for firmware named "tiacx100usbc0D"
in /lib/firmware, so do the following to link to the available firmware
# cd /lib/firmware
# ln -s `uname -r`/acx/1.0.9/tiacx100usb tiacx100usbc0D
Reboot and test. iwconfig output should now be correct!
