Lost of card that you can get anywhere off the shelf these days use RaLink chips, and I had relative success getting such to work with the rt2x00 driver in the latest versions of Ubuntu and OpenSuSE and to a minor degree with Fedora.
Also I could get some Broadcom based cards to work with the open source driver and binary firmware from the windows driver, but its a bit more touch and go as the stable open source driver currently doesn't support firmware release 5 which newer chips require. Anyway, my point is that you can have wireless access these days on a lot of cards with open source drivers - you need not limit yourself to madwifi.
