Odd, the built-in 802.11g card in this Toshiba Tecra M2 works just fine with Debian. Just booted it up and it worked.

And the PCMCIA Netgear card in my Dell Latitude works just fine too.

Once again, you spew FUD and you have no idea what you are talking about.

Linux hasn't worked with 5 of the wireless cards that I've tried -- and, in fact, crashes in several cases with the supplied driver. Cisco Aironet, Orinoco, Linksys, Intel Pro/Wireless, Lucent WaveLAN. Considering that the vendor "workaround" is to recompile the drivers, edit configuration files, and basically waste about 3 or 4 days in endless nonsense, I'm not going to waste any more time on it. You won't admit it (you're a zealot, after all) but Linux Wireless just ain't there yet.
