I have found this link to be pretty up to date on what is Linux
compatible (or not) with various hardware, include WiFi for laptops.

http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net/ftp/SUPPORTED.CARDS

Another avenue is there is an ndiswrapper (refer to Slashdot for the
specifics) that will take a Windows driver and use it under Linux. 
Apparently folks have had good success with 802.11g WiFi cards using
this on various laptops as well I have heard.

HTH.
