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 │ Defined at drivers/net/wireless/Kconfig:496 │ Depends on: NETDEVICES && !S390 && PCI && EXPERIMENTAL && WLAN_80211 │ Location: │ -> Device Drivers │ -> Network device support (NETDEVICES [=y]) │ -> Wireless LAN │ -> Wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11) (WLAN_80211 [=y]) │ Selects: WIRELESS_EXT && FW_LOADER 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 GL -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
