DetailsMy prism card is fully supported under linux (i installed its firmware files over a year ago, it used to work back then through the network service). I have the /etc/conf.d/wireless configured, I have disabled the "network" service on /etc/rc.conf and i instead use dhcpbd and networkmanager. NetworkManager will indeed connect my ethernet card, but it chokes on my PCMCIA wifi card.

Somehow, your bug was created in the AUR project, hence the confusion.
I've moved it over to the main Arch project and, I think, assigned it to the maintainer for NetworkManager (Arjan).
