** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-19-generic
  
  driver: p54pci, p54common (softmac)
  Hardware: Intersil ISL3890 [Prism GT/Prism Duette]/ISL3886 [Prism 
Javelin/Prism Xbow]
  Netgear wg511 v3
  
- Activity continually flickers, despite zero activity. Confirmed by wireshark 
in root. Occurs as soon as firmware is loaded.
- This doesn't happen in NDISwrapper, or in windows. The activity light should 
only come on when there's actual activity. Right now, it's flickering on and 
off so quickly, the light doesn't even reach its full brightness.
+ Activity continually flickers, despite zero activity. Confirmed by wireshark 
in root. Occurs as soon as firmware is loaded. Also, the green light is 
continually on, even when no associated.
+ This doesn't happen in NDISwrapper, or in windows. The green light should 
blink slowly when not associated. The activity light should only come on when 
there's actual activity. Right now, it's flickering on and off so quickly, the 
light doesn't even reach its full brightness.
  Tried with firmware 2.7.0.0, which is packaged in l-u-m, and 2.4.6.0, which I 
was using in NDISwrapper (and extracted with fwextract3). 2.13.0.0 provided on 
wireless.kernel.org's p54 page does not work, likely because it requires the 
kernel module in the wireless-next/wireless-testing branch.
  Haven't tried intrepid kernel yet, but I will in a few days.
  
  Curiously enough, NM reports extremel low bitrates, where iwconfig reports a 
different bitrate (which seems to be rather low as well)
  Not sure if it's related, but the noise and quality indicators disappear upon 
associating, leaving only signal level. If it makes a difference I'm on a WPA 
network.
