Since they opened their specification and other things, they did a lot of work on their driver implementation and now I must say it is good driver.

What did you try, I was having some problems with my wireless and managed to run my wireless in few different ways. NDIS way it worked with no problems, but i wanted native driver and after last kernel release I found one for my laptop(realtek 8187b i think) and on my desktop PC it is broadcom chip, Ubuntu find and install it ok. On other distros got both working too np.
