Hey EC: On behalf of all n00bies, let me ask: where's the list? If
I had a list, I would use it and vote with my dollars!

I tried to get a wireless NIC working under Mepis once. I scoured the
net looking for advice, then bought a card that "should" have worked.
I found that Mfgr. and Model# alone *aren't enough* -- some cards use
chipset A, and others (same model number!) use chipset B. (and all
the implications for drivers that flow from that). Discouraging.

Instead of whining (as I used to do) I just ran a cat5 able across the
dining room floor. Now my wife whines.

If there are useful compatibility lists, please share!
