wireless under Ubuntu v.9 ? It is not listed at

Your chances are good. Wireless support has been getting better and
better for Linux over the last few years, and I found Ubuntu to be
very helpful with some odd hardware last spring.

That's apparently an Atheros-based device (a quick search says AR5008), so
the ath5k driver in recent kernels should be fine with it.
