I run Ubuntu 8.04 on my Macbook Pro, but would like to switch to gNewSense.
I can live with less than optimal graphics performance and no support for the build in webcam, but I do need to be able to use wireless connectivity, which I think is not possible with the build in wireless card.
My question is if anyone could recommend a wireless ExpressCard (34mm) which works with gNewSense?
Best regards

Just to let people know, I ended up buying a DWA-643 Xtreme N ExpressCard Notebook Adapter which works with the ath9k driver. It however turned out to be unnecessary since the same driver also supports the build in Atheros card.
In able to use the ath9k driver I used the kernel provided in this thread:

thanks for the info I was thinking of getting the same card for my laptop. where did you get and how much did you pay??
I bought mine in Denmark, where I live. Got it for approximately $80. It is probably cheaper in most other countries, not least in the States.
