I was trying to port this OpenBSD driver for the newer
RAL chips (usb/wifi) so it would work on the cisco/linksys
WUSB54GC and did not meet with any great success.

The WUSB54GC was NOT on the supported list of devices -
I had to add it manually - which does not fill me with
confidence.

The driver compiles without warning, and loads just fine.

When I try to

  # ifconfig run0 up

all sorts of activity occurs on the USB bus (I looked at
it with a Beagle analyzer) and I did not see any errors 
in the USB transport, but what happens after a while is
that the compatibility lib - sys/lib/libnbdrvr/usb - 
reports a USB timeout (0x06000000) which I am told means
that a request timed out inside the USB stack, before it
had a chance to be passed to the hardware.  I am told that
this is not a USB error, but rather a higher-level problem
with the class device.
