Look for a "no-1802" patch utility. This should get the card to work. But this is only an 11mb card. I would look for a 2200bg card instead.

Thank you, It is working now !

only problem was, that with inserted wifi card I was unable to boot OS from external Cdrom, so I pulled out wifi card, booted to OS and than when system was running I had to insert wifi card back. After that I was able to apply " wifi card hack ".
