Update on above:
Reinstalled Xubuntu Intrepid on the emachine D620. With a wired connection I added the backports and after a reboot all I had to do was setup my wireless connection with the Network Manager. Speed is approximately the same as with the wired port.
dmesg identifies the chip as follows: Atheros AR2425 chip found (MAC: 0xe2, PHY: 0x70)
As a side note, neither Mint nor Sidux could successfully configure the wireless NIC with ndiswrapper and the driver that came with the computer. (no wireless extensions after setup).
