&gt; I would like to find mini pci wireless G series cards that will<br>
&gt; work in my A series Thinkpads without having that !@#$ bios warning
message.<br>
&gt; Part of the problem is that the listings on ebay generally don't tell
<br>
&gt; what chip the<br>
&gt; card uses or if it works on Linux or even if it works with WPA.<br>
&gt; Has anyone on the list tried the<br>
&gt; Intel 2200BG card in a A2* and/or A3* box.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Thanks<br>

<br><tt><font size=2>Yes, I routinely use the older IBM FRU Intel 802.11b
and b/g parts in my A30 builds. &nbsp;</font></tt>
