I have a Belkin 802.11g usb card based on the rt2500 chipset. It works great with the ndiswrapper kernel module. Make sure to follow the directions in the README/INSTALL files. Different versions of ndiswrapper work to varying degrees. I use ndiswrapper-1.1rc1 for the rt2500 Belkin adapter and ndiswrapper-0.10 for the builtin Broadcom adapter on my laptop. It sucks having to use different versions for the different cards, but I just set up a script to change things for me and it pretty much just works.
Linux' support for hardware can be hard to set up initially, but once you get it working it usually continues to work (unlike a certain proprietary OS that fails every time the Wind-blows).
