Please, help with the dwl520rev.E firmware!!!

[Marcos Schonfeld]

In my previous posts I didn't get any answer, so please I would thanks a lot
that somebody help me with this problem
I load the module hostap_pci, download the firmware files, and then ifconfig
wlan0 up.
Some times I can't download the firmware, so I reboot the PC and some times
all wokrs fine, but when I halt the PC, in the next boot the problems
appears again.
In some cases I have to boot WinXP (yes, I have a winxp partition) to get
the card works fine, so then I boot linux and all works fine again.
I imagine you are laugh at my case, but it's true. I suppose that the winxp
driver reinitializes the card so then I can run hostap on linux.
Has anybody get into these sort of truble?
Has anybody a solution for my case?
What are the correct firmware files for my dwl-520 rev.E card?

Other way is to modprobe the module (hostap_pci) and then download the
firmware with que hostap_fw_load utility:

# hostap_fw_load wlan0
Downloading secondary (station) firmware /etc/firmware/rf010704.hex
srec summary for rf010704.hex
Included file name: RF010704.HEX
Component: 0x001f 1.7.4 (station firmware)
ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: No data available
STAID not available (maybe running PRI-only)
ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: No data available
ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: No data available
Could not read wlan PDA. This requires PRISM2_DOWNLOAD_SUPPORT definition in
driver/module/hostap_config.h.

But in fact I have PRISM2_DOWNLOAD_SUPPORT in the driver.

Thanks a lot
