I bought an XG-900 PCI card from Zcomax for $89 and they gave me free 
shipping via UPS.  I installed Ubuntu for AMD64 on my new Athlon64 box, 
plugged in the XG-900, followed the Ubuntu wireless howto, and it 
worked!

The performance isn't very good, but I haven't experimented yet with 
different locations, putting on a high-gain antenna, tweaking the 
configuration, etc.  I was planning to install this PCI card in my 
detached workshop which is 63 feet -- through two exterior walls -- 
from the Linksys WRT 54g basestation.  I so hope I can increase the 
performance.

Oh, do you want the FCC id of this card, or do you already have it.

Thanks for the prism54 driver!  :-)

Regards,

Zooko
