I have struggled with linux-wlan-ng, pcmcia-cs and instructions from
Actiontec tech support and from netmagenetworks.com with partial
success. That is ifconfig -a reports wlan0, /proc/bus/usb/drivers
includes prism2_usb and ifup wlan0 reports interface wlan0 already
configured. But something is wrong. I hope the attached excerpts from
kern.log are a clue which will enable someone to help me.
