When I bought mine there was a piece of paper in the box that said it
doesn't work on NT and several otehr devices, so I could get a new one.
Check your box.
That said, go to www.linuxquestions.org and search for it, there are
many threads there (I'm known as ucntcme there, you can search for that
too)

Lucent Orinoco Gold, can't seem to go wrong with them. So far they stick
with a single chipset (exercise for the user: Why?. :^) )
