Hello,
A WG511 card has been working great from FC2 through F7 using the prism54
kernel module, and 1.0.4.3.arm firmware.
I upgraded to F8, and at first used firmware file '1.0.4.3.arm'.
This worked, but produced an warning message on bootup, so I attempted to
upgrade to a newer firmware version trying files from here:
http://www.prism54.org/firmware
However, none of these worked. I attempted to return to 1.0.4.3.arm.
The final condition is a fault on boot-up if the WG511 card is
inserted. The error is shown in the following section of from /var/log/message.
Notice a message about "BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request"

I am not sure how to approach reseting the card to its 'old' state, or
debugging the firmware situation. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks
