[Cu-wireless] Configuring Lucent Orinoco card under Linux

At Stephane's suggestion, I've finally installed a real operating system once again.  This time it's Slackware 9.0-beta.  After hacking around with iwconfig a bit, I've been able to get my laptop to recognize the card on boot.  Unfortunately, the card can't seem to find the DHCP server on my Access Point.  I'm running the AP on Channel 4 in Infrastructure Mode, 64-bit WEP enabled.  A copy of the output of dmesg on my laptop is attached for additional information.  Can somebody please tell me what I'm missing here?

Thanks in Advance,

Mark
