The new kernels have done away with the need for that monstrosity.
Wireless stuff "just works" with the latest Suse.
On browsing the web briefly, it seems Ubuntu comes with drivers, but not
always the firmware for some cards for legal reasons. It's free to do
so, but you have to download the firmware for those cards. The one I'm
looking at now is for a Broadcom card.
