I've found that WiFi support also depends upon the Linux flavor you
install. For example, my Daughter has a Gateway with Vista. Using only
live CDs, I found that Ubuntu supported all the hardware. All my
RPM-based OSen (PCLOS, Fedora and OpenSUSE) had problems with the
wireless and required ndiswrapper.

You might try linux-drivers.org as it contains links to several lists.
