Shared-key auth on Orinoco card

Shared-key auth doesn't work on my (any, if I believe the source code)
Orinoco built-in 802.11b card.  Going through the wi source, it looks
like it only works on one version of one manufacturer (3com?).

Is there any plan to do something with this?  (or is it one more thing
that isn't known about the "hermes" chipset?)

Windoze (XP home) handles this situation fine, so I know the card is
capable of it.

(then again, windoze handles the Sierra card fine too; I have it sort
of working in bsd but it is SLOW.  And Sierra won't release their
card's API even WITH a NDA.)
