For some reason, wlan-ng (the prism2 stuff) is calling wireless devices
"wlan0" instead of "eth0", and ises wlanctl-ng instead of iwconfig for
configuration.
If you rather want to use the orinoco_cs drivers with PCMCIA (this is
not related to your USB question), delete /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.cfg and
restart the cardmgr. For USB, I don't know if your card is supported
at all.
