What version WP11 do you have? From reading the docs, 2.0 and 2.5 works with
Prism drivers. Linksys changed the chipset on version 2.7, and went to
Broadcom. Broadcom is closed source with no drivers.
Anyway, the yack about the card is here:

and basically, Linksys WMP11 Version 2.7 (the one on the shelves at CompUSA
right now) uses the Broadcom chip and does not work under Linux. If you have
version 2.7 running, please let me know how - so I can try again.
