Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Package name : ipw2100 Version : 0.41 Upstream Author : James P. Ketrenos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and others URL : http://ipw2100.sourceforge.net License : GPL Description : Drivers for Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 (IPW2100) adapter
This package contains the set of loadable kernel modules for the Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 (IPW2100) mini PCI adapter, which is a common component of Centrino notebooks. Preliminary package available: http://people.debian.org/~ley/ipw2100 I intend to upload to experimental because the driver is not yet stable enough. It works pretty well for me but should mature more prior to upload it to unstable. Since this is my first kernel package I would appreciate a review by an experienced developer. Furthermore, binary firmware is needed to get the adaptor running. The firmware can be freely downoladed from Intel (http://ipw2100.sourceforge.net/firmware.php) and is then applied via hotplug. The firmware is certainly not DFSG-free. Must the driver then go to contrib? Regards, Sebastian
