I'd like to venture into trying to dual boot my 17" Powerbook 1.67GHz 2Gb RAM with OS X and Kubuntu. I understand Airport Extreme is currently not supported so I'd probably get a PC card. Any recommendations on what would work as straight-forward as possible? I would want WPA rather than WEP if possible.

Looking through the forums, I've found Cisco Aironet 340 and 350 mentioned as working fine, but do they support WPA?

Also, there's an ATI card in the Powerbook, and I understand there are issues with ATI drivers. So I won't get support for graphics acceleration with Kubuntu then?

Thanks Magnus
