I've found a site where you can find some things to make them work under linux.. (wireless network cards)
This is what the introduction of their site says:

NdisWrapper

Some vendors do not release specifications of the hardware or provide a linux driver for their wireless network cards. This project implements Windows kernel API and NDIS (Network Driver Interface Specification) API within Linux kernel. A Windows driver for wireless network card is then linked to this implementation so that the driver runs natively, as though it is in Windows, without binary emulation.

You can find it here: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/

BTW: can someone help me out with this? I'm a real Linux noob and I dont really understand it.. (How to get it all working and where to start. I've got an usb adapter-->Gigaset 54 (WL-012) )

Thank you
