(Get the code!)
I can add a little more information -- I opened up the case to check the chipset: my Toshiba card is from Agere systems. That's a common manufacturer, and the card is supported automatically on the install CD. That's how I've been doing updates: Boot in rescue mode, do apt-get -d dist-upgrade, then reboot and install.
I can also add that when I run lshw -C network my wireless card shows up twice: once on eth1, and once on "wlan0_ifrename." The second listing is more complete (includes driver and version information). Otherwise, they differ in that the eth01 listing is physical device 0 and the wlan0 listing is physial device 2.
