Bug Description
When I installed Feisty Fawn Herd 1 my acx111 based card did not work. It worked in Dapper. When I ran the command iwconfig it showed up as wlan0 but it got an "no wireless extensions"
I tried to load the 1.X firmware as I had to do in Dapper, but it did not make a difference. I couldn't find any special messages or errors in dmesg.
The card does work when I load it with ndiswrapper-utils (1.9).
I have an acx100 based wireless PCI card (DLink 520+) and it does not work under Herd2 either. network-admin shows the card as a "wired" card (not as wireless) and iwconfig does not allow assigning an ESSID.
