SLED 10 SP1 Doesn't Detect Wireless Card

I just got a new Dell Latitude D830 and much to my chagrin, when I installed SLED 10 SP1 on it the wireless card isn't detected!

I tried downloading the drivers and using ndiswrapper (using this link a coworker suggested: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wi..._Driver/Fiesty, yeah, I know its for Ubuntu...) and it started detecting the card and it lets me search for networks but can't connect to any of them!

I really need to get wireless working on this thing, else I might have well of bought a desktop. Help?
