Compatible Wireless Adapters

Hey everyone,

I need to get a new wireless adapter. Considering the price, high purchase count, and high average rating, I'm wanting this card:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16833315041

Does anyone know if it's compatible out of the box with Slackware 12.2, or if there is a driver available for it?

Also, does anyone know of a list of wireless adapters compatible with Slackware?

The card is listed here as working, so it will work:

Check the main site for more cards that work:

The driver is not included with Slackware, but can be installed later.
