We should be able to get this working, but I'll need you to send me the 
info I requested in past posts, so we can be sure we have the right 
chipset and the right software installed.

Please post the output from 'lspci.'  You can either send the output to 
a file as in:

lspci > foo.out

and then post that to the list as an attachment in email or you can cut 
and paste it from an xterm directly into the body of the email.

Also, review my previous posts and provide the requested info.

Not necessary. :)  We'll get it working.  If it turns out you have a smc 
card with a non-prism54 chipset, the worse scenario is locating another 
card that is supported.  But, let's not go there quite yet.
