Take a look at the modules.alias file. Just blacklisting the orinoco_cs module may be enough. As long as the hostap module was in the kernel module tree when you ran depmod, it should also be listed as a module for that card. Try it and see if that works. If it doesn't, you can ether add a rule to modprobe.conf that loads the module you want when you try and bring up the interface, (easy) or alias the the device itself (harder). Something like: alias wlan0 hostap or alias pcmcia:m*c*f*fn*pfn*paC4F8B18Bpb474A1F2Apc*pd* hostap It might be easier to write a udev rule to load the module when the card is detected. (I know how to translate the PCMCIA user and product codes into udev rules, but not the alias rule above.)
