For PCI, the Netgear MA311 "b" works flawlessly for me. If you need a PCMCIA, this card is reported to work with the 2.6 kernel. That's all I know though...

I've had good luck with the netgear wg311, on newer(2.6) based distros. It is based on the atheros chipset, and uses the medwifi driver. The driver not completely open source, but I have been satisfied with it.
 
I have gotten it to work on Gentoo, and Suse 9.1. It works out of the box on Suse 9.1, and with very little work on Gentoo. It doesn't seem to be on sourceforge for download any more. I'll see if I can find any other links, if you are interested.
