Okay, so the situation is as follows:
I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 notebook primarily using Windows XP (shipped with Vista, but...you know. No.) and I have recombobulated the whole thing to boot into Ubuntu (Feisty Fawn), Fedora Core 7, and XP. The issue I'm having is that neither the onboard wireless card, nor the USB wireless card that I have seem to work with either of the two Linux distros. I have tried the typical solutions handed to me by most sources (ndiswrapper and madwifi drivers) and have obtained absolutely 0 results.
Any help?

Onboard wireless: Atheros AR5007EG
USB Adapter: D-Link Rangebooster WUA-2340

The wired LAN connection works fine, I should note.

Good luck, man. Lack of wireless support for my laptop is the main reason I don't use Linux. I even brought it to a free culture group once when they were having a "Free Your PC" event trying to get people to install Linux and they couldn't help me. Something about there being no frameware for my wireless card.

This is one of my core complaints when it comes to open source operating system development. Stop coming up with retarded little toys that make the OS all pretty and flashy and concentrate on some fucking hardware support. I don't care if you can make my Ubuntu install all pretty with all kinds of bells and whistles if you can't even make it work with my wireless card.
Atheros cards are notoriously unsupported, based on my research, and they are also increasingly popular. You'd think they'd get the picture and work on some support for them.
