I use the Cisco 350 cardbus card with the sourceforge driver (though with
RH 8.0, it should also work fine with Suse I think).
I use it both for normal work and also with kismet, both work fine, so
it may be worth a try also for the internal card.
Dont forget to compile the Aironet proc Interface into the kernel, even
though you use the latest 350 drivers.
