Lot of this devices are "windows designed" :(

Well USB wifi hardware sucks, they need firmware and so on.

I managed few month ago to make a MA111 (prism 2) working with
linux-wlan-ng on Knoppix but it was unstable and wlanng seems not to
support new 2.6 kernel very well.

I've a pci rtl8180 (realtek) which is unusable: neither ndiswrapper
neither proprietary driver for linux works at home.

My 2 cents,

Jody
