  I have purchased several linksys pcmcia cards.  They are relatively
inexpensive, and linux has worked with every one.  

  One note, under Mandrake 7.2, if you dual boot, and windows has already
configured the card, Linux will fail to initialize it right.  You have to
power down first before rebooting.
