wlan problems


I have a Linksys WUSB11 v2.5 and have been trying to install the thing like mad lately....

first, i tried modprobeing orinoco_usb, but apparently i dont have that module!! (how can I get that ?)

So, i turned to wlan..... i installed the correct rpms and edited the wlan conf files.... here is the error message i keep getting.

####################################
Bringing up interface wlan0: Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Function not implemented.
Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Function not implemented.

Determining IP information for wlan0...SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device

Here are my conf files~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~modules.conf
options prism2_usb prism2_doreset=1
alias wlan0 prism2_usb

~~~~~~~~~wlan.conf
