Paul, thank you for your answer, but I have no ambition whatsoever to
compile drivers myself. I much rather go out and buy another stick. I
just don't want to start a collection in the hope that one fits the
bill.

But how can one know if a specific wifi stick is maintained by
kernel.org or raspberrypi.org? Sometimes you see sticks advertised as
"for Raspberry Pi" or as "linux compatible". Does that mean they are
maintained? Even without a list, there must be some way of
distinguishing a compatible stick?
