Greetings,
The entry in /usr/share/discover/pci.lst for "1260 Harris Semiconductor"
"12603873 ethernet orinoco_pci Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset" is wrong: the
module should be prism2_pci, which is provided by the linux-wlan-ng
package's modules. (That is, at least on my laptop, orinoco_pci doesn't
work, and prism2_pci does.)
Zeen,

Greetings,
As it turns out, orinoco_pci works fine with this device (I had been
looking for device wlan0, it works on eth1). So the entry is not
erroneous at all and this bug can be closed.
Sorry about the error and followup delay.
