Can anybody report on a wireless card (PCI for desktop PC) that works out of
the box with Linux? If so, what distro/version? Hoping to buy a wireless
nic card SOMEWHERE to work with linux. Seems that this piece of hardware is
the most mysterious holy grail to locate and buy-- I would buy it today if
I could just discover a vendor online that has a wireless PCI card for my
desktop-- why is this quest so difficult, sigh.
