Mark: Just a comment, since I don't run wireless adapters on my 10.04 hosts.
I have managed over the years to help a friend who lives in penury on the left coast get Linux + wireless working on several cast-off laptops he and his significant other have received. For some of them he picked up el cheapo USB-wireless adapters at Fry's. In any case, if the adapter does work as-is I've usually been able to get it working with the aid of the material on wireless.kernel.org. He prefers Linux Mint to Ubuntu so I'm only guessing his earlier system was based on 10.04. In some cases, the labor is significant, but I was always able to tell him enough by email to get him going. Generally speaking, the newer the kernel and its modules, the more likely everything "just works." Yet another reason to abandon 10.04, even if one doesn't care Ubuntu no longer supports it.
