I just wanted to use a mini-PCI card using a prism54 module - however, it fails to bring the interface up with "Out of memory, cannot handle oid" and "Your card/socket may be faulty, or IRQ line too busy" messages.

I vaguely recall seeing an error like that when I used the wrong
firmware.  What firmware are you using?

This is my card:

# lspci -nn
(...)
00:02.0 Network controller [0280]: Intersil Corporation ISL3890 [Prism GT/Prism Duette]/ISL3886 [Prism Javelin/Prism Xbow] [1260:3890] (rev 01)

According to http://prism54.org/newdrivers.html, my card is among the supported devices, and I should use version 2.7.0.0 for PCI devices firmware:

PCI Vendor (hex)	PCI Product (hex)	Common name
1260	3890	Generic ISL3890


It doesn't work and says "Your card/socket may be faulty, or IRQ line too busy". With 2.7.0.0 firmware, it doesn't say "out of memory" anymore.

Are there more things to be done to make this card work?
