Asante 802.11g card on 2.6.8?

[vze26m98@optonline.net]

Hi all-

Got an Asante 5402-XG wifi card I'm trying to get to work on a Pismo/Linux 2.6.8. Seems like I'm pretty close, but so far no luck. Don't have another machine of any OS to test some things though...

Looks like lspci finds the card and I've added the airport support modules, still no response from ethernet.

The Asante card is a Broadcom chip BCM4306 (rev.2) and I've attached some relevant pieces on data from my system below.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Best,

Charles
