You've got to be careful when selecting a g wifi cards for Linux.  Many 
are not supported, or require wrappers.

run lspci and see if it detects the card.  If you don't understand the 
output, post it here and we'll see what we can figure out.

Are you sure it's not the hwp54g card?  I can't find any reference to an 
hpwg54.

Checking out google, you might be in luck.  There is a version of the 
hwp54g that uses the prism54 chipset.  Look to <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://www.prism54.org/";>http://www.prism54.org/</a> 
for info there.  I don't see a reference to it there myself though. :(

Here's the google link I pulled up as a tinyurl: <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://tinyurl.com/4w64n";>http://tinyurl.com/4w64n</a>

Thing is, if it was a prism chipset, I would have expected Suse to have 
properly configured it or at least recognized it.

I did get a good number of hits on google, you might give that a spin as 
well.  If you can determine what the chipset is, that will help folks in 
attempts to help you.

There's also a thread on this card at linuxquestions:

<a  rel="nofollow" href="http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?s=&amp;threadid=278415&amp;highlight=HWP54G";>http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?s=&amp;threadid=278415&amp;highlight=HWP54G</a>

Here's the tinyurl for the same link: <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://tinyurl.com/4shpr";>http://tinyurl.com/4shpr</a>

See if you can determine the chipset and post more info.  Also check the 
above thread.
