The HAL that is complaining about lack of support for said hardware is binary only, and thus out of control of the people who would care most about your problem. Therefore, whilst I care for your problem, I cannot even make any good changes or even suggestions about what you can do right now to make your wifi equipment work in linux, other than ndiswrapper.
