linux-wlan problems!
 
I hate to be a bother, but god, i just don't know what to do....
it should work, but it doesn't. everything is where it should be, i think. it sees prism2_usb and there's an alias in modules.conf but it still can't seem to find wlan0

maybe helpful info:
RedHat Linux 7.3(it's pretty much stock, i haven't updated anything)
Belkin 802.11b Prism2 USB Wireless card
(it's on a super old crappy laptop, but that's inconsequential information :))
modprobe prism2_usb doesn't return anything so modprobe has found it, and it exists...

error log:
Starting WLAN Devices:wlan0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
Error: Device wlan0 does not seem to be present.
Make sure you've inserted the appropriate
modules or that your modules.conf file contains
the appropriate aliase(s).
cat: /proc/net/p80211/wlan0/wlandev: No such file or directory
wlanctl-ng: No such device
dot11PrivacyOptionImplemented mibget failed.
wlanctl-ng: No such device
error: Autojoin indicated failure!

Any help would be greatly appriciated!
:cry:
