Buddy of mine had a Linksys card (don't remember the model), and the
only solution to get this card to work was the "windows" emulated
ndiswrapper, which to me, is just a kludge anyway.  He never got it to
work, so he returned it and bought a Netgear (see below).

The best card that I've found is the Netgear WG511, which uses the
prism54 chipset.  Works great, with Fedora anyway.
