I thought that at least chunkeey got a working connection.... obviously not.

Is there anything else I can do if I'm no Kernel Programmer (perhaps provide
more infos, do some other beta testings)?

When I looked on the prism54.org homepage or their svn-repository it seems that
the driver is not developed any longer.
What is about Christian Lamparter (chunkee) or Luis R. Rodriguez (mcgrof) are
they still working on it?
