But you don't have to compile kernel modules to get the wifi working  
in OS X... ;)

If you want we can have a crack at getting it working.  What chipset  
is it?  The problem you will have with doing that is that you will  
have to recompile/install  everytime your kernel is upgraded by the  
package manager, not a big problem but it can get a pain.  My  
housemate was using Ubuntu and the Madwifi package was b0rked, we  
changed it to a Gentoo and Debian dual boot and it works a treat in  
both... no recompiling modules needed.
