Op SourceForge werken een aantal mensen in samenwerking met Intel aan Linux drivers voor de Intel Pro/Wireless 2100, een netwerkkaart die in veel Centrino-laptops is te vinden. De drivers werken alleen op Linux met kernelversie 2.4.23 en 2.6.1 of hoger, en vereisen Wireless Tools for Linux en de IPW2100 firmware-image om hun werk te kunnen doen. Het changelog bij deze release laat de volgende wijzigingen zien:
Changes in 0.51:Known issues in 0.51:
- Fixed setting of Level to 0 when not connected; fixed problem with waproamd not detecting when association is lost.
- Fixed problem with connection state going out of sync with association when interface closed.
- Added 'associate' module parameter to instruct the driver if it should auto-associate during scans. Useful when using a user space utility for association policy.
- Reworked some of the driver init messages to be more in sync with other netdev devices.
- Fixed bug with the treating ESSID as a null terminated string.
- Added reporting of level # for iwpriv $" rel="external">IF_NAME get_powermode
- Fixed problem with SIOCGIWESSID returning the wrong length of ESSIDs
- Some more changes to the suspend / resume portion of the driver to try and get it stable on all systems.
- Fixed problem with mandatory BSSID filtering not persisting through adapter restarts.
- If C3 is enabled, you may occassionally see "Corruption detected at 0x....:"" messages in your kernel log, followed by a firmware reset. A temporary work around is to disable the C3 low power state (either via the patch on the website to processor.c or by unloading the ACPI processor module).
