Seems like that card has a broadcom chipset (listing of cardbus version on http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_p...dname=Linksys), so see http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/ for the driver info.

Or another method here: http://dossy.org/archives/000110.html

Hello Capricorn80, I'm about to start the same process with the wmp54gs and suse 10.1. I was wondering if you ever got it working?
