On my Lib110CT I use a Cisco Aironet 350 card. A bit expensive and maybe
not easy to come by these days (I suspect production has ceased) but
otherwise it performs flawlessly in all OS-es I've installed on my Lib.

On the web there are quite a number of overviews on e.g., Linux and OS/2
supported cards where PC-Card vs. Cardbus aspects are highlighted - esp.
OS/2 compatible wifi cards are usually (....still) 16-bit. Just google a
bit harder.....
