[Nottingham] Wireless PCI card support

[Michael Carmody]

I have been using the DLINK 650 802.11b  and a 3com OfficeConnect 802.11g card 
in slack 9.0,9.1 and 10.0 and current starting at 2.4.24 up to 2.6.9 kernel 
series.

My only problem was when slack current moved the hotplug firmware location for 
my 3com card.

Otherwise I have been using wireless linux happily for over two years on 
slackware.
