Hi

I copied that script http://prism54.org/~hvr/firmware.agent into
/etc/hotplug, is that enough?
Or do I need some installation files???

Ok now I tasted insmod prism54 and on the comandline was written:

linux:~ # insmod prism54
Using /lib/modules/2.4.23-v2/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/prism54/prism54.o
/lib/modules/2.4.23-v2/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/prism54/prism54.o:
init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including
invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg

In /var/log/messages is that printed:

Dec 14 20:36:48 linux kernel: Loaded prism54 driver, version 1.0.2.2
Dec 14 20:36:48 linux kernel: eth2: uploading firmware...
Dec 14 20:36:58 linux kernel: prism54: request_firmware() failed for
'isl3890'
Dec 14 20:36:58 linux kernel: eth2: could not upload firmware ('isl3890')
Dec 14 20:36:58 linux kernel: eth2: All went well, except firmware load

Does this help you???

Kind regards
