	The GUI should work on the latest Ben's driver. Javier did
implement the necessary interface.
	In theory, the next version of the Cisco driver should
implement Wireless Extensions. But I don't know when.

	Next time, read the Howto more carefully ;-)
	Using Wireless Extension is well worth it. The scheme support
allow user to have various setups (home, work, ...). And Wireless
Extension is the standard on Linux.
