It should also be usable on various Prism II based cards such as the Linksys, D-Link and Farallon Skyline. It should also work on Symbol cards such as the 3Com AirConnect and Ericsson WLAN.

To use your PC-cards, you will need supporting software from David Hinds' pcmcia-cs package (see the file Documentation/Changes for location). You also want to check out the PCMCIA-HOWTO, available from http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto.
