[Bug 669753] [NEW] Dell 1450 USB Wireless Card Incompatibale

[Grant B]

Public bug reported:

My wireless card (ID 413c:8104 Dell Computer Corp. Wireless 1450 Dual-band (802.11a/b/g) USB2.0 Adapter) does not work when connected. The wireless card uses the isl3887usb driver, which was not included by default, so I downloaded it from: http://daemonizer.de/prism54/prism54-fw/ . Then I did the folowing:
sudo cp isl3887usb /lib/firmware/`uname -r`/isl3887usb
sudo modprobe -r p54usb | modprobe -r p54common
sudo modprobe p54usb | modprobe p54common
and my card works!
