I don't think this is necessarily very lucky.
In my experience (with an Orinoco USB WiFi dongle)
the driver is almost certain to stop working
with later versions of the kernel.
Hi Timothy,
My only experience with a wireless card in Linux is the Ralink
Technology card. From experience they are very helpful.
I had upgraded my kernel from the original F9 kernel and the Linux
driver for the wireless card I downloaded didn't compile. An email to
their support and a new driver was made available within a day. Being
new to Linux wireless I wasn't sure how to configure it for my AP. Again
they were very helpful pointing out that I needed to use NetworkManager
to configure instead of the usual system-config-network app.
They really support their wireless cards for Linux.
