Re: Actiontec Problem Restated

["Thomas H. George" <tom@spininternet.com>]

A clarification:

I concentrated on linux-wlan-ng-0.1.16-pre8.  Tried all the permutations
of loading modules and posted a number of questions to the linux-wlan-ng
user's list but have only succeeded in making the green light on the
Actiontec Wireless USB Adapter turn on as the system is shut down for
reboot.

Nevertheless I remain convinced the adapter should work.  Why?

1. kudzu -s followed by less /etc/sysconfig/hwconf reports the device
present by name, vendorID 1668 and deviceID 0421.

2. less /proc/bus/usb/devices reports vendorID 1668, deviceID 0421 and
driver prism2_usb.

3. depmod -n |grep 1668 outputs a line starting with prism2_usb and
including vendorID 0x1668 and deviceID 0x0421.

4. Jacek Pliszka says "Actiontec USB 802.11 card (I love it too)"

Nonetheless, I haven't been able to make it work.  Just today I
downloaded linux-wlan-ng-0.1.16-pre9.  Still no luck.
