After extensive aggravation, I finally got the MADE IN TAIWAN version of the WG511v2 PCMCIA wireless card to work on (k)ubuntu, and wrote the instructions out in detail. You can find the instructions out on my blog.. If this works for you, PLEASE tell me either here, or on the site.
Thank you, and have a pleasant day!
I'm going to walk off and unplug for a while. My head hurts.. lol

Oh well, at least mine is driven for (k)ubuntu tho.. :P
