Personally I've had poor luck with the 0.15 chain of the drivers, they seem to be a lot more unstable than the 0.13 chain. (This is probably why they're still under development, instead of a full release).

I understand it, I see that drivers is very unstable.
I searched pages for other drivers to orinoco usb, but I can't find.
Probably, I must wait to stable version, thanks a lot for responses.
