    Hello,

        Reading through orinoco.c and hermes.c, it seems to me that
    the "hard_srt_xmit" function "orinoco_xmit" is presented with an
    fully-built Ethernet frame (802.2 or 802.3). This frame is then
    written to the firmware by calls to the underlying hermes "driver".
    The firmware then slaps a LLC PDU header followed by MAC frame header
    and then a Physical Layer header and sent over the "air". is this
    scenario correct?

    Regards and thanks, Vasili
