I couldn't follow whether you were looking for a PCMCIA card or a PCI
card.  On the PCMCIA front, I bought a new Linksys WPC55AG Dual-band
card two weeks ago.  Popped it into my Thinkpad T22 runing SuSE 9.1
Professional, and it worked on the spot.  I had to go into YaST to set
up the access point info, but I didn't have to configure any drivers. 
So far it has worked wonderfully on both 802.11b and g.
