I'm interested, so please tell me more. Is this something that can be found via the package manager?

I think it was mentioned elsewhere in this thread that the short answer is yes. I think Kubuntu even includes it as part of the interface. (My experience with Kubuntu was not a good as with Ubuntu. YMMV.)
I have two wireless cards that use a TI chipset (ACX-100/111). Although there is an ACX driver which shows up each time I update the kernel, I can't get it to work consistently. NDISWrapper works for this card. My advice: Spend the extra money needed to get a wireless nic that works with Ubuntu out of the box. Mine works, but I now have extra steps each time I update that you probably don't want to have to take.
Maybe others here can help with choices of cards that DO work?
