So I have downloaded the latest firmware for the Linux prism54 driver from
http://100h.org/wlan/linux/prismgt/ into /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/ and rename
it
|
# cd /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/
# wget http://100h.org/wlan/linux/prismgt/1.0.4.3.arm
# mv 1.0.4.3.arm isl3890

Note: isl (India, Siera, Lima)
That is all I have done. Then you configure by YaST and will work fine.
