I don't have any experience with that card, but what were your 
exact problems? Was the card detected during installation?  
Is the card seen by "iwconfig" or other utilities?  Can you check
/var/log/messages to see if there are any references to the card being
found by the kernel or not?

signature when sending mail to TriLUG -- this list is archived publicly
