It turns out that there *is* some nascent support for that chip, so 2.6
and AMD64 support is probably at least feasible if not a no-brainer.

&gt; which is a no-name prism card as well.
&gt; 
&gt; I picked up another prism54 card at Compusa yesterday for $29 after 
&gt; rebate.  79 before rebate is not bad for a g card and linux drivers. 
&gt; I'm building a box to test it with as I had to upgrade/patch the kernel 
&gt; and build the prism54 drivers.   My 3com card is in my Emperor Linux 
&gt; laptop and the Emperor kernel supports it.
&gt; 
&gt; I'll likely get back to it later tonight, if/when I do, I'll post on my 
&gt; progress.  If I get these two cards talking at 54 I'll be pretty pleased.
