work to well for linux yet.
802.11g cards are not supported at all it seems
The following are the chipsets that apparently work,
Aironet
Prism2 /2.5

Have you tried ndiswrapper.sf.net? I'm not sure what exactly it does,
but I have heard about it doing something for people in your situation.
Best of luck, unsupported hardware can be a pain.
