    It's been a while since I've used a b card but I think my old wmp11 ran an Orinoco driver in Linux but you had to manualy configure it each time I booted.

    I now use a Linksys WPC55AG and it is now supported at least in Knoppix which is Debian under the Atheros driver. It is directly supported and can connect at G+ speed which is 108
