<div>I don't know for sure, but my WG511U works fine in gentoo... can't
say about other distrobutions. but I got it working fairly easily with
both ndiswrapper, and madwifi.The one I have is an atheros chipset.
which is what the WG511T should run on, but I can't be sure if there is
more than one version of it.
