9 | What: PRISM54 | ||
10 | When: 2.6.34 | ||
11 | |||
12 | Why: prism54 FullMAC PCI / Cardbus devices used to be supported only by the | ||
13 | prism54 wireless driver. After Intersil stopped selling these | ||
14 | devices in preference for the newer more flexible SoftMAC devices | ||
15 | a SoftMAC device driver was required and prism54 did not support | ||
16 | them. The p54pci driver now exists and has been present in the kernel for | ||
17 | a while. This driver supports both SoftMAC devices and FullMAC devices. | ||
18 | The main difference between these devices was the amount of memory which | ||
19 | could be used for the firmware. The SoftMAC devices support a smaller | ||
20 | amount of memory. Because of this the SoftMAC firmware fits into FullMAC | ||
21 | devices's memory. p54pci supports not only PCI / Cardbus but also USB | ||
22 | and SPI. Since p54pci supports all devices prism54 supports | ||
23 | you will have a conflict. I'm not quite sure how distributions are | ||
24 | handling this conflict right now. prism54 was kept around due to | ||
25 | claims users may experience issues when using the SoftMAC driver. | ||
26 | Time has passed users have not reported issues. If you use prism54 | ||
27 | and for whatever reason you cannot use p54pci please let us know! | ||
