The wireless card works fine when the 'network-manager' package is removed from the system. Just removing the dependent package 'network-manager-gnome' is insufficient to make the card work. The problem was discovered and investigated on a Fujitsu Siemens AMILO-D series (CY23) laptop (Celeron 1.1GHz) with Lucid freshly installed by netboot.
