[opensuse] ndiswrapper Help Appreciated

I'm fairly new to Linux, but not quite a total novice. I've set up a
little Linux machine for my wife, using ndiswrapper to install a LinkSys
wireless NIC. I had very little trouble with that, and her machine
connects to our network without a problem.
However, trying to do the same for my Toshiba Satellite P-35 laptop has turned out to be quite an adventure. Although ndiswrapper confirms that the driver has been installed correctly, and that the right hardware is present, I haven't been able to connect to our WAP at all. The NetworkManager icon (SuSE 10.2) just continues saying "no connection."
If it's simply impossible to use ndiswrapper with this Atheros wireless card, it would save me a lot of trouble to know that. On the other hand, if anyone here has actually gotten one of these set up and working, I'd sure like to have a chat with you!
