Just re-read your message and I'm wondering a bit what you're trying to do.
Is the card for the Newton or not? If it's for the Newton, then you don't
need that driver on sourceforge. Only NIE 2.0 with Hiroshi's driver should
do. Now, how do you plan to connect that Newton with this ORiNOCO card? To
an AirPort base station? Some other wireless router? How is the Macintosh
running Mac OS 9.1 is going to connect to that Newton 2100? When you say "in
classic mode", does that mean that this Macintosh is running OS X?
