It is not a Prism 2.5 chipset, it is an Intel chipset that currently is unsupported. I have not had a response from Intel in my last mail to them, but I guess there could be holiday time there.
For the time being those mini-PCI cards is dead weight in the laptop I am afraid. I hope that either Intel suddenly sees sense (snowflake in hell analogy coming on) or some bright spark reverse engineers the card and writes an alpha driver that surpasses the functionality of the Intel beta drivers they keep under lock and key internally.
I'll probably locate some Prism CardBus card in the meantime to use.
