The Dell TrueMobile 1150 PCMCIA card works perfectly well under Linux. I'm currently using it using the orinoco module of pcmcia 3.1.33-6 (downloaded pcmcia-source and compiled it as a debian package). If you need any help setting it up just email me direct.
It's not a recent functional addition to pcmcia so you should be able to get it working relatively easily with whatever configuration you have. I have no idea what "limited functionality' means.
