Good find!
PRISM chipset is 100% linux compatable.

Two remarks about that:

The prism54 driver works only for the old "hardmac" cards, not for the currently sold "softmac" cards.
The prism54 driver does not support WPA, so anyone who wants real solid encryption for his WLAN should look at other cards IMHO.
