Info
SUSE Linux 10.0 with kernel 2.6.16 ndiswrapper
Works well with Debian sarge with kernel 2.6.8-1-386 or my custom 2.4.27 and ndiswrapper version 0.11. Note, couldn't get the rtl8180(173) version to work as above. It found the card, but alas no LEDs. Resorting to the WinXP driver provided on the installation CD gave success.
Note, don't use the Windows XP driver comes with the card which DOSEN'T work with ndiswrapper. it can power up the card but can not get DHCP IP.
