This driver worked on a default install of Ubuntu 8.04 for WPA Personal, WEP, and open networks; however, 802.1x and WPA1/2 Enterprise do not work until I installed linux-backports-modules-hardy.

iwlwifi

Yes

This driver works well on Lucid. If your keyboard doesn't have a button for switching wifi on, you have to insulate the pin-20 of the wireless card to make it always on.

This wireless card does not work in Karmic. (iwlagn expects firmware/ucode version 3 or lower, but 4 is the only version available). Installing linux-backports-modules-karmic fixes this. BugLink linux-archive.org thread Blog post detailing fix.
