I'm trying to setup a Linksys WUSB54G and I get this error message
from DMESG.
usb 2-2: firmware: requesting l3886usb
usb 2-2: (p54usb) cannot find firmware (isl3886usb)
usb 2-2: firmware: requesting isl3890usb
p54usb: probe of 2-2:1.0 failed with error -2
usbcore: registered new interface driver p54usb
I have googled isl3886USB and can't find the firmware, does anyone
know where this firmware
is.
I am pretty sure I used one of those on F8, and it worked out of the
box.
Anyway, take a look at

I should have told you that I'm trying install on a X86_64 box.
I did install the 2.13.24.0.lm86(2).arm and it is in /lib/firmware, it
would not install in
/lib64/firmware.
I think I need to install the ndiswrapper for i386, I have
ndiswrapper.X86_64 installed.
The ndiswrapper.i386 doesn't show up in FC10 X86_64 fedora repo how do I
change the repo's to read the i386 files ?
I think you missed a crucial step. Although right now I am using a D-Link
USB wifi receiver, I did try a Linksys for a few days after I had set it up
for the D-Link, and it worked right out of the box. So the procedure should
be the same. Here is how I did it for the D-Link.
1. I put the firmware in /lib/firmware/
2. Renamed it to 'isl3890usb'
2. in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/ ran "make menuconfig" as root,
enabled the relevant kernel module. then did a "modprobe<driver>". Here
<driver> is p54.
I believe you missed the renaming the firmware part.
HTH
PS: I am on x86_64 too
$uname -r
2.6.27.24-170.2.68.fc10.x86_64
I did as you suggested, but I'm still having problems.
Do you know what this means?
p54usb: probe of 2-2:1.0 failed with error -110
Here is my dmesg and lsmod
Dmesg

This is my output from dmesg. Its rather odd that in your case the
kernel is looking for two different firmwares for the same device.
Modules that are loading
p54usb 14208 0
p54common 20452 1 p54usb
mac80211 194224 2 p54usb,p54common
As you can see from this device list, your adapter is not there.
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/p54/devices
However filtering the complete device list for Linksys gives me a list
where it is included.
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Devices/USB?dbw.devices.submit=filter&dbw.devices.filter0=[all]&dbw.devices.filter1=Linksys&dbw.devices.filter3=[all]&dbw.devices.filter4=[all]
Are you sure you have the correct model *name* *and* *revision* for the adapter?
If you have that correct then the next step would be to check the
settings in menuconfig. This is what you should see when you search
for prism after running make menuconfig.
│ Symbol: PRISM54 [=m]
│ Prompt: Intersil Prism GT/Duette/Indigo PCI/Cardbus

After that is verified, try 'modprobe prism54'. I was quoting from
memory in my last email and had erroneously said p54. If all of this
doesn't work, I am out of ideas. I am very new to linux myself. :P

What is the difference between p54usb, p54common, prism54 driver.
The p54usb, p54common always loads at bootup,
but the prism54 doesn't.
I have to modprobe prism54 to get it to load.
Which one is the correct driver ??
