HI all:

I would just like to report that I have been able to successfully 
connect with the on-board broadcom based wifi card, using WPA no less.
Best of all, it was quite painless.

Compaq R3240CA
Gentoo AMD64,  kernel-2.6.17
wpa_supplicant-0.5.3
wireless-tools-28_pre1a0

It's seems to be stable (with the odd hiccup), although I'm not chucking out my 
linksys
pcmcia card quite yet.  We'll see how it goes.

I followed some pretty straight forward instructions here:

and

I used the firmware from here:

Good Luck!
