hey...

cant's speak for centos...

but i'm running fedora 8 on a toshiba laptop, running x86_64 and i'm using
madwifi, with a usb linksys wifi and it works like a champ.

i'm not using netmanager, or ndiswrapper.. just madwifi, and the regular net
system/configuration app...

peace!

Of course, you will need to do an ndiswrapper install.

I've succeeded with the Netgear wg111t usb wifi, but
only with a 32 bit kernel. Check the ndiswrapper
sourceforge homepage for full selection of supported
hardware.
