I don't know why dmesg wouldn't return useful information when run from a live CD, but it does sound like the prism2_pci driver is loading. I get the same on my Thinkpad T30:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dmesg |grep -i prism [ 34.828000] prism2pci_init: prism2_pci.o: 0.2.5 Loaded [ 35.120000] A Prism2.5 PCI device found, phymem:0xf8000000, irq:6, mem:0xf0a88000 [ 205.004000] eth1: Station name "Prism I" But then that seems to conflict with your lspci command. I'm a little confused. So try this: Boot with the feisty CD: $ sudo iwconfig (see if there are any wireless devices available) $ sudo modprobe -r prism2_pci $ sudo modprobe -r orinoco_pci $ sudo modprobe -r hostap_pci $ sudo modprobe orinoco_pci $ sudo iwconfig (see if there are any wireless devices available at this point) I know you've probably been through this before, but I haven't been able to tell from what's been recorded in this report so far. thanks, mike -- IBM thinkpad A31p: wireless ok in 6.06, not in 6.10. https://launchpad.net/bugs/68196 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
