I forgot to tell you that in menuconfig

I am pretty sure I used one of those on F8, and it worked out of the box.
Anyway, take a look at

I should have told you that I'm trying install on a X86_64 box.
I did install the 2.13.24.0.lm86(2).arm and it is in /lib/firmware, it would not install in /lib64/firmware.
I think I need to install the ndiswrapper for i386, I have ndiswrapper.X86_64 installed.
The ndiswrapper.i386 doesn't show up in FC10 X86_64 fedora repo how do I change the repo's to read the i386 files ?
I think you missed a crucial step. Although right now I am using a D-Link USB wifi receiver, I did try a Linksys for a few days after I had set it up for the D-Link, and it worked right out of the box. So the procedure should be the same. Here is how I did it for the D-Link.
- I put the firmware in /lib/firmware/
- Renamed it to 'isl3890usb'
- in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/ ran "make menuconfig" as root,
enabled the relevant kernel module. then did a "modprobe <driver>". Here <driver> is p54.
I believe you missed the renaming the firmware part.
HTH
PS: I am on x86_64 too $uname -r 2.6.27.24-170.2.68.fc10.x86_64
I did as you suggested, but I'm still having problems. Do you know what this means?

Here is my dmesg and lsmod
