[Bug 592809] [NEW] Wireless card not detected in Lucid

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

After upgrading from Jaunty --> Karmic --> Lucid on my Dell Latitude LS
laptop, my wireless card is no longer detected.

It used to light up as soon as it is inserted, and then connects.  Now,
it doesn't even light up (although, curiously, the hard drive light
comes on and stays on permanently).

This certainly seems to be the culprit.

02:00.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation ISL3890 [Prism GT/Prism
Duette]/ISL3886 [Prism Javelin/Prism Xbow] (rev 01)

I believe the wireless card is a rebranded Netgear card, but I can't
remember the full details and can't find anything in Google or on the
their website.  Model No.: WL054-BGA

Not sure what further details are needed.
