Yeah, what sucks the most is Intel with its Centrino stuff. I mean, after how many months, their web site still says that wireless drivers for Linux are "under development". That's a really poor show.

BTW, are there any 802.11g wireless cards with proper, open source, in-kernel support under Linux? I wasn't aware of any, but if there is one, I'd love to know about it.

Prism drivers fairly advanced

Whilst they're not in the kernel yet, the Prism drivers project is pretty well advanced - the patches apply cleanly, work with the standard wireless tools, and worked straight away for me.
