I now have it working under 3.4-PAO which may or may not help you, but I found something I thought was strange. I haven't tried my current configuration under "straight" 3.4 or -current due to lack of time. No matter which free irq I chose for the Linksys card, I had the same result: the card was found properly, but any attempt to use it locked the system until I removed the card. -PAO put it at irq 9 (which I hadn't even tried -- that's where the ATI video card hangs out), and it's worked perfectly ever since. I intend to try this configutation under 3.4 as soon as I can find the time, since I'd like to be able to track -stable more closely.
