The *Intel* WiFi-NIC (Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter) on my IBM Thinkpad X31 worked mostly out-of-the-box. I just needed to download the firmware and I was up. So did the SMC Ez Connect PCMCIA card I used on my previos laptop (I think it was a prism54 flavor), also once I snarfed the proper firmware for it.
I think the prism-variety you mention is what's used with the wifi-NIC on a desktop I have, that I wanted to run MythTV on but haven't had any luck with yet.
The firmware you mention, is that used with dkms or something like that?
