I had a look and found, that the driver comes under a
BSD licence and that BSD is mentioned as a target OS!

I'm waiting for an Atheros based access points and cards
to become available in Europe (the Linksys 55AG products
look very interesting to me), but ACX100 support would
definitely fill a gap ...

PS: I'll contact one of the ACX developers and ask about
    their actual planned level of BSD support.
