Which version of the card? If Made in China, it won't work as the (so-called "softmac") chipset used isn't supported yet by the prism54 driver. If it's Made in Taiwan, you need to: - fetch the firmware here: http://prism54.org/~mcgrof/firmware/ and place it as "isl3890" into /lib/firmware - add a line "alias eth1 prism54" (eth1 or whatever your card should show up as) to your /etc/modprobe.conf If I remember correctly, that was enough to make the card work on my FC4T3 test installation I did on my laptop. I do remember very well the situation that the card was completely ignored. I'm not sure HOW I managed to get it recognized at all, but IIRC the major point was the alias line in /etc/modprobe.conf. Please let me know wether that worked... Best regards, Daniel -- CLUE-RIPE -- Jabber: dr@xxxxxxxxxx -- dr@IRCnet -- PGP: 0xA85C8AA0
