Wireless networking with WUSB54G on x86_64?

I've just installed Fedora Core 5, 64 bit edition, on my machine. After a bit of trouble, I managed to install Ndiswrapper and proceded to install my WUSB45G adapter's driver. The driver I used was not originally ment for my adapter, but it works for the adapter in 64 bit Windows. Needless to say, it did not work. It said the driver was installed, but after a "ndiswrapper -l" it said the driver was invalid. I then tried the normal 32 bit drivers to the same effect. Anyone know what to do?

Well, unless something odd is going on with fedorah I'd say just use the native linux driver from the prism chipset project which has apparantly supported your card for over 2 years?

Thanks for getting back to me. The WUSB54Gv4 isn't Prisim54, it uses rt2500. So now I'm trying the rt2x00 project out.

Thanks for the response though.
