Package: installation
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

I have the Netgear MA311 card, which works correctly with the orinoco_pci module. However, both orinoco_pci and hostap_pci are loaded, rendering the card useless.

To fix it, I need to rmmod hostap_pci, hostap, ieee80211_crypt, orinoco_pci, orinoco, hermes, and then finally modprobe orinoco_pci to get the card working again.

To get the card to work each time the machine boots up, I've had to blacklist the hostap drivers too.
