Yes, I did, actually.  Though technically it does work, sometimes the system
just forgets the wireless is installed, and sometimes ndiswrapper just
refuses to connect to any wireless hub.  But if you want to try it, you can
get the XP drivers from
http://www.atheros.cz/download.php?atheros=AR5007EG&system=1 ; they do work
with ndiswrapper.

Also, you may want to search for and install the acer_acpi program...
