I, too, had trouble getting SuSE 9 to recognize my laptops(Dell) wireless card. And in my case, Knoppix works flawlessly, too.
I ended up having to disable the wired ethernet port (ifdown eth0), then up/down the the wireless card (ifdown eth1/ifup eth1). Here is where I found the solution: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/archive/25/2003/12/4/129084 S390 content: When are we going to see a pcmcia slot on the z/Series?

The Aironet probably uses the orinoco drivers. I have had no success with my Linksys WPC11, which also does, under SuSE. Frustratingly, I can boot from a Knoppix CD and it's detected and turned on automagically. Adam
