Unfortunately this doesn't help.

This what I get in syslog:

The problem seems to be that second
"ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready"
after that iwconfig shows me:

> voyage:~# iwconfig wlan0
> wlan0     IEEE 802.11  ESSID:"FUnkLAN"
>           Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.412 GHz  Access Point: Not-Associated

>           Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
>           Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

And this leaves me with a configured interface with a dhcp assigned ip
address but no communication possible:

As I mentioned earlier the only difference to a voyage linux 0.6pre
installation (where the same card works) is the second
"ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready" message

I'm still clueless and stuck with voyage 0.6pre for now...

Cheers,
Fabian
