I have the the MA311 card in my FC2 box. In FC1 kudzu recognized it no problem and since I upgraded to FC2 I still have no problems. Keep an eye on http://www.linux-wlan.org/ the drivers they have work well with this card. Also usually on first boot after the install kudzu will pick up new hardware. I would say go for the install.
