I am not sure where to post this because it is just a solution, but I have been running ubuntu for a year now. I had to reinstall, and owned a belkin F5D8055 v2 wireless usb adapter. I could not get it to work, until I found this forum and fixed it up a little bit myself:

The change was a modification to step 5
Step 5
Code:
gedit os/linux/usb_main_dev.c
and add the following line
Code:
{USB_DEVICE(0x1737,0x0077)}, /* Linksys WUSB54GC */
Save and close
Under the line "Code:" change the numbers. Plug in your belkin f5d8055 v2 and type in lsusb. There it will say:
Code:
ID 050d:825b Belkin Components
Change the contents of the parentheses to:
Code:
{USB_DEVICE(0x050d,0x825b)}, /* Belkin F5D8055 v2 */
The part in the slashes is only a tag so you know what it is. Follow the rest of the instructions and you will have a working Belkin usb adapter
