Any modern distro should work with the pci card, you may need to install the
firmware driver however for the card to work.

You want (maybe???? not enough info to be sure); p54pci_1.0.4.3.arm
Found here; http://jbnote.free.fr/prism54usb/data/firmwares/

Rename the file to; isl3890
Place the renamed file in someplace like; /lib/firmware

Should work by using the prism54 module.

Yes, I know it is for a Netgear WG511, but it is the chipset that matters
not the company name on the device.
