Networking :: wpa_supplicant with aironet 350



I have a Cisco Aironet 350 I'm using with a Toshiba Portege 3025 laptop, HD install.
The card is recognized and seems to be working, but I have WPA-PSK on my wireless network. I have been trying to use wpa_supplicant but have not had much luck. Here's my last try (I should be able to connect to the 'MYNET' network:
Code Sample

I've tried various, probably useless ways of calling wpa_supplicant, and have googled furiously, to no avail.
Here is my wpa_supplicant.conf (at least what I think is the relevant part):
Code Sample

network={
       ssid="MYNET"                
       psk=verylonghexnumber
       }


UPDATE:
It seems that WPA is not in the driver. Folks suggest updating the firmware at Aironet Firmware Updates (you'll need a windows machine unfortunately). Now, there is also a driver here. It's "airo.c" but I don't know what to do with it. I would appreciate it if someone could help me with this file and what to do with it. It looks like I have to compile it and then install it somehow.
