Using a 3com wireless card. It doesn't work with the prism54 module (none of the firmwares from prism54.org work with it) - and googling on it suggests that they changed the chipset - but not the part number or other identifiers.
However - the card works just fine with ndiswrapper. So - I have added the config to /etc/network/interfaces and added pre-up modprobe ndiswrapper post-down rmmod ndiswrapper as part of that - works just fine too. Only question I have left is that when you first plug the card into the PCMCIA slot something loads the prism54 driver. So - the first time I have to manually rmmod prism54 before I can ifup wlan0. I've looked in /etc/pcmcia (cardmgr) and /etc/hotplug (hotplug) - I can't find anything mentioning prism54 at all. In the logs all I get is: Sep 12 17:53:18 localhost kernel: Loaded prism54 driver, version 1.2 Sep 12 17:53:18 localhost kernel: PCI: Enabling device 0000:03:00.0 (0000 -> 0002) Sep 12 17:53:18 localhost kernel: ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:03:00.0[A] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 Sep 12 17:53:18 localhost pci.agent[6500]: prism54: loaded successfully All I want is to stop the prism54 module from loading at card insert time - any hints as to what is causing this gratefully received. -- Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
