I believe it uses the Texas ACX 111 chipset but we need to be sure since the card makers are always coming out with new "versions" that can have totally different chipsets. Open a terminal, (konsole is good) and type:
...and press enter. Then type:
...and press enter, copy all of the output and paste it here.

If it IS ACX 111, have a look at this page.

Notice this:
...corresponds with this line from /sbin/lspci -n...
The pertinent info underlined. Now we go here and search for "104c:8400." Your wireless is indeed using the ACX chipset. (Read entry 25). It says there are drivers you can use, but we're also told it can be set up to work nicely with ndiswrapper.

I'd try installing the drivers first. Then, if that doesn't work out, try installing the Windows drivers with ndiswrapper.

Just as a note: When I was trying to get my card going, /sbin/lspci returned that it used the ACX 111 chipset as well, however /sbin/lspci -n showed that it was in reality using the Broadcom chipset!
