Linksys AP/Routers Not Supporting Non-Microsoft OSs?

Multispin asks: "This isn't exactly new, but Linksys has a nifty little router/firewall/switch/802.11b Access Point box for sale. The only problem is that the wireless interface seems to only work with windows. I've put together a little page about this issue, here. I'd like to try to put together a larger group of interested people. Linksys makes good stuff, I just want to help them solve this problem, not boycot them! I think the problem problem due to the device not sending Ethernet II type however I'm not quite sure." Has anyone else tried fixing this problem?

Sorry, but this has been fixed already

If you are using bleeding edge kernels with the Alan Cox patches, this has already been taken care of for you, close to a month ago now. The problem is a funky encapsulation that they are using.
