"SuperG" is a trademark of Atheros and is universally supported using the
madwifi driver. Newer cards require newer versions of the driver. The
older the distro, the less likely it is to work. Forget the ancient ones
you had your heart set on, and install something recently released. Unlike
Windows, it'll "just work."
