Javier,
I have struggled a little with WLAN cards in my Powerbook (yes yes I
know diff, distro, but same idea). I found that many cards have
different chipsets, but are packaged under the same model (but with
different versions). It's important that you get a card with the Orinoco
PrismII chipset, because it's best supported under linux.
There is no such thing. There is the Intersil prism(2/2.5/3), and the Orinoco chips. The prism is able to use the orinoco_cs as a very simple driver, but they are not the same chipsets.
