Yesterday I installed a Linksys usb wireless card, after some doing I ndiswrapper'd the driver file (rt2870.inf) that came on the installation cd, which allowed me to connect to my wireless network. After installing the card on my separate windows drive however, It is failing to find any networks on the network manager. I'm running Gutsy 7.10.
Here is some info I gleened off the terminal.
ndiswrapper -l
