SpeedStream 1024 - is it supported in Linux or not?

Hi,

I was wondering if the SpeedStream 1024 with Broadcom chipset is supported
in Linux yet? I have seen a lot of chatter about that the Prism2 version
works great, but the Broadcom version doesn't - is that still true, or
does a Broadcom driver exist now?

Thank you very much!

Ingo

Thanks for the hint! Unfortunately, orinoco_pci is the driver for the
prism chipset, and from all accounts is not compatible with the Broadcom
version.
