Hey guys, I'm still in my "get an 802.11g adapter under Linux" quest.  I now 
have this card in my possession:

http://www.intersil.com/pr/shell/0,1091,900,00.html

This is a DLink card that uses an Intersil chipset.  So I get this from 
cardctl.

cardctl ident
Socket 0:
  product info: "Intersil", "ISL3890", "-", "-"
  manfid: 0x000b, 0x3890
  function: 254 ((null))
  PCI id: 0x1260, 0x3890

I added this to wlan-ng.conf:
card "D-Link DWL-G650 54Mbps 802.11g WLAN Card"
  manfid 0x000b, 0x3890
  bind "prism2_cs"

This is from a demsg|tail after inserting the adapter (1 high beep, followed 
by 1 low beep):
cs: cb_alloc(bus 2): vendor 0x1260, device 0x3890
prism2_cs: GetFirstTuple: No more items
prism2sta_config: NextTuple failure? It's probably a Vcc mismatch.
prism2sta_event: prism2_cs: Initialization failed!
cs: cb_free(bus 2)

So this is a Intersil Prism chipset based card.  Any ideas?  Shouldn't this 
work?  Suggestions?
