One thing Ubuntu does well, is keep the hardware support list pretty up-to-date. Here is the section on the Wireless: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported While it is not always true that the hardware will work with Debian (the whole Ubuntu restricted drivers and whatnot) it should at least give you an idea of the problems people are having or if the hardware works right off the bat. The card you mentioned is indeed listed so my guess is that is should be easily do-able. You may want to see if they have any more comments or problems in their forums.
