Debian has a wiki, maybe you can get an account to edit/add this
useful
data:
http://wiki.debian.org/WiFi#USBDevices
Also, mentioning it here is a good way to broadcast the good news ;-)
You should probably add your lsusb output too. That's because not all
WG111 are created equal: IIRC, the WG111 has switched chipsets -- and
consequently, drivers -- when going from .v2 to .v3. A good resource on
Linux-compatible wireless adapters is the Backtrack website
http://www.backtrack-linux.org/ because they also gather information on
the "monitor" mode of various cards.
