Please always give information about the location of the documentation if you have any problems with it.

Enabling p54

To enable p54, you must first enable mac80211:

I used Google and found this text on the linux-wireless wiki:
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/p54

I rephrased the text to make it more clear that it only applied to configuring the kernel.

Since you are using a precompiled kernel, you don't have that option.

I have a kernel config
file in /etc/sysconfig but its a bit bare, as shown below:

That's something totally different. The wiki talks about compile-time configuration.

How do i enable p54 and mac80211, i'm not sure and its bloody annoying.

You only need to check if the modules are present in the kernel you are using. You can do that by running "modprobe p54".
