So I tried this. It sucks. The orinoco driver has problems scanning

I did a patch for airo a year or two ago that cleaned exactly this
sort
of behavior up. Not sure that really helps you much. As a quick test,
what happens if you do a few back-to-back 'iwlist ethX scan' commands?
Initially, works fine. But if I connect to a network once and then try
again, I get a lot of "Failed to read scan data : resource temporarily
available". Once I see that message, it isn't going to connect until I
reboot.
And not a soft reboot -- has to be powered off.
