There are a bunch of cards that work. The current 802.11 cards that use
the PRISMII radio chipset are supported by the linux-wlan-ng driver. Find
it at http://www.linux-wlan.com/linux-wlan/index.html

I've only heard tell of that ng driver working with 2.4 -- there's also
another driver that works with the older 2mbit cards (of which I have 4 or
5), and I've not seen that working with 2.4, but there's discussion of a
patch on the mailing list. It'll come along soon enough. Anyway, if you're
buying newer cards, they'll be 11mbit and use the ng driver.
