The driver has become available via SWC download. IBM miniPCI cards are used in many newer ThinkPads, like the IBM T30, and some other T2x models. The self-extracting driver ibmprism.exe has served as a basis for the NetGear, LinkSys, PLX9052, and Generic PRISMx driver. Some PCI-devices of other brands can also work with this driver. E.g. CompuShack SWN-103 PCI Wireless LAN Adapter, a PCI card with an external antenna, and equipped with a PRISM2.5 chipset. Just as the IBM High Rate PC Card 128, this driver is available via SoftWare Choice and PassPort Advantage subscriptions, and can be downloaded from IBM Device Driver Pak Online. Also available via eComStation download site. Please note that IBM ONLY supports this device with this particular driver! Other devices (in particular miniPCI solutions) WILL NOT WORK. This driver should be available from ecomstation.com, for those with support agreements. Meanwhile, I have uploaded Achim's submission to Hobbes, here: http://tinyurl.com/2nfbab and after it is approved, it should be available here: http://tinyurl.com/3czqa3. -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------ Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA, CLP, CLE Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC Accountants / Network Consultants New York / Northern Virginia www.2rosenthals.com eComStation Consultants www.ecomstation.com Novell Users Int'l www.novell.com/openenterpriseserver Need a managed Wi-Fi hotspot? www.hautspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------
