HELP wireless network card - does Linux support it or not?

I've been trying to get my wireless network card working
under Linux FOR YEARS (talk about TCO! :-( ).
Recently, I installed Linux-2.6.7 thinking it would finally
support my card.


I believe the card is called Intersil Prism 2.5 and it's a mini-PCI
card (It's permanently inside my laptop). In any case, `lspci`
shows that the card is present:


02:0d.0 Network controller: Harris Semiconductor: Unknown device 3873 (rev 01)
Subsystem: Citicorp TTI: Unknown device 1169
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
Memory at f8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
Capabilities: <available only to root>


The kernel was compiled with the these options:

CONFIG_PCI=y
CONFIG_HERMES=y
CONFIG_NET_WIRELESS=y


So W.T.F is still wrong ?!?!?!?!


`ifconfig -a` does not show anything except dummy0, eth0 and lo

It should show wi0 among others.

Well... evidently your card is _NOT_ such thing. If you tryed the
prism driver and they don't work, I think you're out of luck.
