And Brooks Davis was correct, with shows up as a linksys device on my machines. If the original poster wants, I can send him my kernal config file, but I think I really only had to add options card which I think was commented out, not too sure, it was a while back, and I had a lot of other issues with the kernels and the machine taking a huge dump to panic mode a lot on some other things, like smbfs and smp.

If it's going to work the definition for the Linksys WMP11 will do it. It will have the wrong name in dmesg, but that doesn't do anything. This entry should be changed to reflect the fact that it's actually an Intersil Prism 2.5 ID that lazy vendors are using. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
