[iPAQ] Ipaq + Dual Sleeve + Orinoco Gold HELP

Firstly, let me apologize if this is a redundant post. I have searched as
much as possible for the information to solve my problem but to no avail.

I have installed the stable release of Opie + Familiar from the Familiar
homepage (0.7.2). I have done the ipkg update from Clem's website (don't
remeber what link...) I have gotten my Orinoco Gold WLAN card working with
the wvlan_cs module. However, I would like to run kismet and/or
wellenreiter or ANY networkstumbler like tool. From all the help files I
could piece together; they say you need the "patched" orinoco_cs modules. I
also read somewhere that 0.7.2 comes with those drivers and to replace the
wvlan_cs entry in /etc/pcmcia/config with orinoco_cs. But, when I do this
it wlan stops working and I cannot get kismet or wellenreiter to work. With
the wvlan_cs module I get some monitor not available errors (which I assume
is because those are in the orinoco_cs module) Also, I have WEP enabled if
this makes any difference. I was able to get it working with wvlan_cs.

This is what I have:

Ipaq 3835
Dual PCMCIA Sleeve
IBM 340MB Microdrive
Orinoco Gold 801.11b PCMCIA Card (firmware 7.52? I think)

What I am wondering is; if someone could provide me with a FAQ or some sort
of help for dummies getting the orinoco_cs module working from a clean
Familiar+Opie 0.7.2 install after the ipkg gets fixed (I can manage that
one)

Any help would be greatly appreciated. It seems that all the meaningfull
information relating to PDAs and Linux is spread all over the place.

Thanks,

Dan
