   Ok, here's an update to my question:   
      
   > Windows reports the WLAN adaptor as "Fujitsu Siemens Computers WLAN    
   > 802.11b/g (SiS163u) #2"   
      
   Fujitsu-Siemens don't provide any Linux drivers but I have found one on the    
   SiS homepage. Unfortunately it is dated from 2003 and it seems to support    
   only WAP encryption, which doesn't meet my requirements in my WLAN here,    
   since WPA-TKIP is used.   
      
   Making my research in the internet I often met the keyword "ndiswrapper". Do    
   i get it right, that I should go this way instead? Does this work with my    
   AMD64-version of ubuntu?   
      
   Greetings
