Hi Michael,
Hope all is going well mate.
I've got an Inspiron 8500, and I bought/installed the Proxim Orinoco Gold card, which was a 802.11a/b/g mini-PCI card.
It works fine under Debian with the GPL madwifi (atheros) driver. There's also a debian package available for building kernel module source packages of the driver as well.
Details are at: http://people.debian.org/~crafterm/inspiron8500.html
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Marcus

I'm running a Dell Inspiron I4100 and it has a empty minipci slot which could take a wireless card. I've looked around a bit and found a atheros chipset which I think would work with the madwifi drivers and a few others. Has anyone installed a minipci card in something similar to the 4100? I'm just looking for minipci cards of the 802.11g variety which would not require ndiswrapper or linuxant ideally. If that cannot happen, I could do linuxant easily for it.
Thanks!
