Op SourceForge werken een aantal ontwikkelaars in samenwerking met Intel aan Linux drivers voor de Intel PRO/Wireless 2200 en 2915, twee netwerkkaarten die in veel Centrino-laptops terug zijn te vinden. De drivers zijn gemaakt voor kernelversie 2.6.4 of hoger en hebben verder de Wireless Extensions en Tools nodig. Daarnaast dient de firmware van de netwerkkaart bijgewerkt te zijn naar minimaal versie 2.3. Deze firmware kan op deze pagina worden gevonden. Het changelog van versie 1.0.4 van de drivers laat de volgende veranderingen zien:
Changes in 1.0.4
- Added some run time data via the 'stats' sysfs entry.
- Fixed #627 problem with open APs not working with wpa_supplicant
- Fixed swapped memset arguments in ieee80211_tx (thanks to Jesper Juhl)
- Fixed problem with CONFIG_IEEE80211_ defines not being configured when built as an in-kernel module (thanks to Olivier Blin)
- Fixed #632 problem with 'txpower auto' setting power incorrectly (thanks to Kai Groner)
- Fixed #634 problem with 'iwconfig eth1 frag 0' hanging the shell
- Fixed problem with adapter not fully powering off during suspend to RAM or when module unloaded.
- Improved support of iwlist freq|chan and setting of channels via iwconfig to correctly check channel limits (added ieee80211_geos)
- Fixed #645 problem with turning fixed rates off not taking effect until you reload the driver
- Fixed problem with firmware restart if wpa_supplicant was used to set a key that wasn't exactly 5 or 13 bytes in length.
- Fixed #623 Added iwpriv sw_reset extension to reset sw parameters
- Added speed_scan channel scan list support
- Added managment frame export to user space with frame statistics
- Fixed #652 Modified the driver to load the EEPROM data even if RF KILL is active during driver load
- Global s#CX2_#IPW_#g to make code more consistent
- Fixed #572 problem with setting txpower to auto
- Fixed #656 problem with kernel oops if mode auto; modprobe -r ipw2200
- Added QoS (CONFIG_IPW_QOS) support. This is being actively developed but is the first step in getting WMM support into the driver and the kernel.
- Fixed some race conditions wich channel changes, association, and scan abort that could periodically cause a firmware restart.
- Misc. changes to the ieee80211 subsystem to clean up code and add additional support.
- Added some extensions to export scan and network statistics to user space (exposed through speed_scan and net_stats sysfs entries)
- Fixed #661 problem with 'pci' script (thanks to ajksf@xs4all.nl)
- Fixed #654 problem compiling against kernel patched with SWSUSP2 (thanks to Henrik Brix Andersen)
- Fixed a few bugs in how monitor mode was supported (scan lists weren't quite right)
- Updated the firmware requirement from 2.2 to 2.3 which supports monitor mode.
- Fix #609 problem if SUSPEND2 included on kernels that do not support
