Hi,

I'm very interested in the answer to this question as well. I got
an SMC2602W 11Mbps Wireless PCI card at CompUSA the other day,
expecting that the PCI card was just a standard PCI-to-PCMCIA card
bundled with SMC's wireless PCMCIA card (SMC2632W).  On closer
examination, I found that it too uses the PLX PCI9052, and appears
to Linux as a single PCI device:

        01:0a.0 Network controller: Unknown device 1638:1100 (rev 02)

I found a Linux driver for this card on the SMC website, but it's just
a tarball of linux-wlan-ng 0.1.4, with no instructions on how to get
it to work. Anyway, I too would appreciate any tips on getting this to
work with linux-wlan-ng.

Thanks,
