Lets look at it the other way. The current rawhide kernel has the
following kernel moules: (If you can find the matching cards for any
of these drivers. )

[balay at localhost ~]$ ls /lib/modules/2.6.8-1.541/kernel/drivers/net/wireless
airo_cs.ko   atmel.ko      netwave_cs.ko  orinoco_pci.ko  prism54        wl3501_cs.ko
airo.ko      atmel_pci.ko  orinoco_cs.ko  orinoco_plx.ko  wavelan_cs.ko
atmel_cs.ko  hermes.ko     orinoco.ko     orinoco_tmd.ko  wavelan.ko

The easy ones would be prism54 (and the good old orinoco ones which
aren't for sale anymore)
