802.11b 16Bit PCMCIA Wireless Cards

[rec9140]

My Belkin 802.11b F5D6020 ver. 2101 did not work for me under 3.7 but there were reports that it did for others. It works for me under the just released Knoppix 3.8.1.

Since this meets my CHEAP requirement in the sources I've found. I wasn't planning on using V3.8.1 as I've seen some issues with the HD install of it.

Any way to tell the verision of these cards from a sealed box and/or the card itself?

Is this via ndiswrapper or via native modules/drivers on the knoppix CD?

Any one else have other cheap 802.11b cards that work under V3.7 or V3.8?
