Look in the wiki, you should find everything you need there. If you're still stuck, come back again, tell us what you tried, and and what didn't work.

1- b43, broadcom STA and broadcom-wl exist ...

2- Ati Xpress 200M have some problems since Ati dropped support of it ...

3- I tried many times without luck udev rules will be needed cause I also use a webcam ... (linux professionnal users only)

4- After 3, MythTV could be hard to setup correctly, so I try to know how before ...

5- Never used a printer on linux so I wanna be prepared ...

Re: Mid-user questions to be resolved ...

OK... my previous adivce still stands, perhaps with some wider googling, and I would also add that if you want to "know how before" you do something, and you "wanna be prepared", the best way to achieve that is to do your own research and answer your own questions. You're looking for someone to post howtos here just for you, when all you need to do is put in a bit of time and effort and you can work it out for yourself.

I'll give you this though - you need the b43 driver. This information is available in the wiki Wireless Setup page.

Apart from the 2 answers above...  What can't you find?  What have you tried to do?

1 - b43
2 - My system the catalyst drivers yielded highest performance, but the biggest pain to get working. Since it's 'just a server' I switched to the xf86-video-ati which is still pretty good.

All the how to questions...yea...they're in the wiki. :-)
