download monitor-0.13e.patch and orinoco-0.13e.tar.gz 

<spoonfeed>
wget http://ozlabs.org/people/dgibson/dldwd/orinoco-0.13e.tar.gz
wget http://ozlabs.org/people/dgibson/dldwd/monitor-0.13e.patch
tar zxvf orinoco-0.13e.tar.gz 
patch -p1 < monitor-0.13e.patch
cd orinoco-0.13e
make
mkdir /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc/
cp *.o /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc/
depmod -ae
</spoonfeed>

This will for the latest version of the orinoco driver.

Make sure you have CONFIG_NET_RADIO but not CONFIG_HERMES in your
kernel.
