It did work somehow, but unfortunately not reliable. If I put the ppc
box right next to the wlan router I get a wpa2 connection and everything
works just fine. If I move the box just a few meters away I can't get
the box to authenticate itself again. After some time I get a kernel
oops and the machine hangs...
I tried various things to make work, but without success. From my point
of view it looks like that the zd1211rw kernel module does not work in a
ppc architecture.
