I've been trying to get my SMC2802W PCI card to work with Mandrake 9.2.
Here's my steps so far:
Installed wireless tools
Put isl3890 & firmware.agent in proper places (making the agent executable with chmod +x)

Downloaded 2.4.23-0.rc5.2mdk kernel
Patched it with patch-2.4.23-prism54-cvs20031230.bz2 (took me awhile to figure out the bzip command in the readme needs to bzip2)
Compiled the kernel with all configurations needed
Booted into new kernel
iwconfig shows lo no wireless extensions
lspci shows card as D-links DWL-g650 A1
/sbin/lsmod | grep prism54 returns no values
/sbin/hotplug shows only my firewire agent
depmod returns no errors
If I try and configure the misdetected card through drakconnect the prism54 drivers don't show up as an option.
 

Any help would be appreciated.

Jerry
