So I have my wireless card working atm with ndiswrapper and wpa_supplicant, but I would like to see if I could get it working with a prism54 driver, since that is the driver that is installed when I use it on window
The islsm driver is located at http://jbnote.free.fr/prism54usb/index.html and that is also where I am following the instructions from.
So, I have dowloaded the islsm driver 2.5.8.0.arm from the website since my lusb -vvv matches the second generation output. Now that I have the driver(I guess that's what it is), the instructions say to copy it to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/isl3887usb_bare, but that directory doesn't exist on my system and I highly doubt it will work since arch doesn't use hotplug.
Therefore, does anyone have any ideas on how to install the driver and get it working?
Cheers,

Hi Alphalutra1,
try to copy the firmware in:
/lib/firmware
Offline
So I copied the firmware over, but now i am completely lost :oops:
Since that is just the firmware, I guess I haven't installed the driver yet. So I followed the code step, but when I downloaded the official workbench, then cd into the directory and run "make driver", This:
