Intel Linux Driver Version 1.0 For Centrino WLAN 30
Werner Heuser writes "Intel has just released Linux driver version
1.0.0 for the Centrino PRO/Wireless 2100 chipset. Almost two years, since
the first Centrino generation with Pentium-M Banias has reached the market,
a stable issue of a native Open Source driver has become available. The
Wireless LAN driver
for the current Centrino generation with Pentium-M Dothan
and PRO/Wireless 2200BG chipset is still at version 0.13. This driver
is intented to support also the third generation of the Intel miniPCI WLAN
adapter named PRO/Wireless 2915ABG. Though Intel
intended these projects to be community efforts, there are some
possible working constraints. Mainly, no hardware documentation is
available."

Rant and rave at Intel all you want - the Pentium-M is the best mobile processor ever made, full stop. Don't hate the hardware because you don't like the maker's policy towards OSS.
