Ooops. Sorry if that wasn't clear. I don't have any card, just the MultiPort wireless module that plugs into the connectors on the back of the LCD panel. The part number for the one I bought is 233412-xx1 on the HP web site. I couldn't seem to find a part number for the Presario unit you mentioned; it's probably on the hp.com site somewhere but I didn't look that hard.
There's a bit more info on MultiPort at: http://www.compaq.com/products/notebooks/multiport.html AFAIK, you can only get this MultiPort device from HP or one of our resellers, but I could be wrong. Something else I forgot was that this module uses the prism2_usb driver out of linux-wlan-ng.
