If you didn't do it yet, visit:

There are two different drivers. One is included in kernel 2.6.18. The other 
one you have to compile yourself. Works for me for SL 10.1 with kernel 
2.6.16.21-0.25-default 

YaST does not recognise the usb-stick as wlan device, so you have to create a 
dummy config file, then change ifcfg-whatever-comes-here to ifcfg-wlan0 (see 
template in /etc/sysconfig/network).
