Comment 6 for bug 76026

I have a very similar card to the original requestor (PCI)

00:09.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset (rev
01)
        Subsystem: Actiontec Electronics Inc HWP01170-01 802.11b PCI Wireless Ad
apter
        Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV+ VGASnoop- ParErr- Step
ping- SERR+ FastB2B-
        Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort
- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR-
        Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 22
        Region 0: Memory at dffff000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
        Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2
                Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1+ D2+ AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0+,D1+,D2+,D3hot
+,D3cold-)
                Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME-

which on a defaults install is controlled by hostap_pci and doesn't work blacklisting prism2_pci and hostap_pci results in a working system.
