I've got a T42p with wireless working fine under ndiswrapper. My unit
has the a/b/g card with Atheros chipset, and my driver is not the one
you mentioned. Try the following driver:

uid=psg1MIGR-52527&rs=0&cs=utf-8&context=HWM94&dc=D43T5&loc=en_US&lang=en&cc=US
If that doesn't work, go to the following URL and enter your model
details, choose "drivers" -> "more" -> "wireless" and try the ones there
too.
