I went through heck trying the same for my old ThinkPad 380.  I ended up 
with a Netgear MA401 (prism), which works great.

Your next step will be getting it set up.  Slack 9.1 should work out of 
the box if you installed the wireless tools package. 

Also, if you are having strange problems finding a driver that works, 
check the version # on the card.  Sometimes they switch to a completely 
different chip without changing model #s, just for kicks.

Hope this link helps.
