    You don't say what wireless adapter this is or what driver you need.
    I recommend a PCI or PCMCIA (not USB, yet) PrismGT-based adapter.
    They use the prism54 driver, which is included in the kernel. I
    wasn't able to get the first two adapters I bought to work, but the
    third (a PrismGT) worked effortlessly.
