Does 'lshal' show the device as having net.80211 capabilities?  If not,
then it's a udev+hal+driver issue that needs to get fixed.  Sometimes
the device name gets changed by udev, and hal doesn't quite know about
it, so hal can't "connect the dots" in sysfs and figure out that the
device is wireless.
