The wpa_supplicant output you provided looks fine, as your device is associated
to a WPA-protected access point. I am not sure why you are executing this
command directly, instead of just using "ifup eth1".

This configuration block is invalid. Executing wpa_supplicant directly would
have complained to you about it:
Line 7: Invalid configuration line 'network'.
Line 8: Invalid configuration line '{'.
Line 9: Invalid configuration line 'ssid="linksys"'.
(etc.)
Failed to read or parse configuration '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf'.
It should use the following syntax (note the first line):
network={
ssid="linksys"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
proto=WPA
(etc.)
}

You need help with what, exactly? wpa_supplicant - and the orinoco driver, by
extension - appear to be working correctly.
I'm assuming because you executed wpa_supplicant manually, you didn't run
"dhclient eth1" to obtain a DHCP lease after association, in order for an IP
address to be assigned to this wireless interface.
Run "ifup eth1" instead, as this will call both wpa_supplicant and dhclient as
necessary. See also interfaces(5).
