I've never done the PCI thing but heres a good list:

http://linux_wless.passys.nl/

It claims partial support for the D-Link G520 with the mad-wifi
driver.  I use the same driver in my laptop and its been very stable.

You might also be able to use the ndiswrapper project for that card. 
I had fairly good experience with the ndiswrapper, even with Microsoft
cards.
