I have a Prism2 PCI card that can do master mode, and so I had
previously setup my computer to act as an access point for my laptop
using the prism54 driver. I recently did an Ubuntu upgrade, and the
kernel toggled over to the p54pci driver. I found that the p54pci
driver does not work in master mode, and I don't know if even works in
managed mode (I don't care, I have ethernet to my DSL modem). I had to
revert back to prism54 which, I might add, works excellent for me.
Here is the relevant output from lspci:
