Can one of the older non Extreme airport card be used in one of the
newer ibook/powerbooks ?
AFAIK, Airport Extreme aren't like older Airport cards thus they are
not
physically compatible.
But a standard PCCard Wifi card should work in the PCCard slot on the
PowerBook.
Nod, I can confirm both these statements. The Airport/Airport Extreme
cards are entirely new cards - different design, different chipset,
different connector, everything.
Get yourself a cheap Orinoco or Prism based card; both have excellent
support under Linux.
