[Bug 542491] [NEW] Lucid no support Linksys WUSB100v2

I am a Ubuntu newbie, trying to get a good fix for my USB WiFi, other forums and terminal judo have not worked.
Since this affects the WiFi adapter, I have no internet access on the actual Ubuntu machine.

uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-16generic #25-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 9 16:33:12 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
cat /proc/version_signature
Ubuntu 2.6.32-16.25-generic
dmesg
 sorry too long for me to retype all of the output here
sudo lspci -vnvn
again, too long for me to copy all, but the USB info basically looks like this:
00:1a.0 USB Controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) USB UHCI Controller #4 [8086:3a37]
Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device [1025:0250]
....(abridged for my having to write this down by hand and later transfer to a computer with internet access)
Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd

I have had problems with this WiFi adapter since 9.04 and the regular Ubuntu forums were unable to resolve my issue.
The USB WiFi adapter is the Linksys RangePlus Wireles Network USB Adapter, WUSB100ver2. It does not show up in Network Manager or iwconfig at all. It does show up as follows:

lsusb
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 1737:0078 Linksys

>From looking at the other forums, it appears people also have issues with a different Linksys USB WiFi adapter that shows up as 1737:0070 as well.
And of course it should support WPA2 and other WiFi security as well.

I would one day like to have the technical skill to figure this out on
my own, but this is way over my head. I appreciate your support and
assistance. Other than this WiFi issue, I am a big fan of Ubuntu! Keep
up the great work!!! Thank you very much!
