booted Xubuntu via live CD on my Thinkpad T22 with Lucent WaveLAN card. Wireless worked great once I configured my SSID and password.
I was impressed with the bootup speed(off CD at that) so went ahead and installed it. Once it was installed I went to configure the wireless again, but the card isn't listed in the network control panel :-(
Time for bed - I'll look into it tomorrow evening.
