+Important Notice FOR ALL USERS OR DISTRIBUTORS!!!!
+
+Intel wireless LAN adapters are engineered, manufactured, tested, and
+quality checked to ensure that they meet all necessary local and
+governmental regulatory agency requirements for the regions that they
+are designated and/or marked to ship into. Since wireless LANs are
+generally unlicensed devices that share spectrum with radars,
+satellites, and other licensed and unlicensed devices, it is sometimes
+necessary to dynamically detect, avoid, and limit usage to avoid
+interference with these devices. In many instances Intel is required to
+provide test data to prove regional and local compliance to regional and
+governmental regulations before certification or approval to use the
+product is granted. Intel's wireless LAN's EEPROM, firmware, and
+software driver are designed to carefully control parameters that affect
+radio operation and to ensure electromagnetic compliance (EMC). These
+parameters include, without limitation, RF power, spectrum usage,
+channel scanning, and human exposure.
+
+For these reasons Intel cannot permit any manipulation by third parties
+of the software provided in binary format with the wireless WLAN
+adapters (e.g., the EEPROM and firmware). Furthermore, if you use any
+patches, utilities, or code with the Intel wireless LAN adapters that
+have been manipulated by an unauthorized party (i.e., patches,
+utilities, or code (including open source code modifications) which have
+not been validated by Intel), (i) you will be solely responsible for
+ensuring the regulatory compliance of the products, (ii) Intel will bear
+no liability, under any theory of liability for any issues associated
+with the modified products, including without limitation, claims under
+the warranty and/or issues arising from regulatory non-compliance, and
+(iii) Intel will not provide or be required to assist in providing
+support to any third parties for such modified products.
+
+Note: Many regulatory agencies consider Wireless LAN adapters to be
+modules, and accordingly, condition system-level regulatory approval
+upon receipt and review of test data documenting that the antennas and
+system configuration do not cause the EMC and radio operation to be
+non-compliant.
+
+The drivers available for download from SourceForge are provided as a
+part of a development project. Conformance to local regulatory
+requirements is the responsibility of the individual developer. As
+such, if you are interested in deploying or shipping a driver as part of
+solution intended to be used for purposes other than development, please
+obtain a tested driver from Intel Customer Support at:

+1. Introduction
+-----------------------------------------------
+The following sections attempt to provide a brief introduction to using
+the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Driver for Linux.
+
+This document is not meant to be a comprehensive manual on
+understanding or using wireless technologies, but should be sufficient
+to get you moving without wires on Linux.
+
+For information on building and installing the driver, see the INSTALL
+file.
+
+
+1.1. Overview of Features
+-----------------------------------------------
+The current release (1.0.8) supports the following features:
+
++ BSS mode (Infrastructure, Managed)
++ IBSS mode (Ad-Hoc)
++ WEP (OPEN and SHARED KEY mode)
++ 802.1x EAP via wpa_supplicant and xsupplicant
++ Wireless Extension support
++ Full B and G rate support (2200 and 2915)
++ Full A rate support (2915 only)
++ Transmit power control
++ S state support (ACPI suspend/resume)
+
+The following features are currently enabled, but not officially
+supported:
+
++ WPA
++ long/short preamble support
++ Monitor mode (aka RFMon)
+
+The distinction between officially supported and enabled is a reflection
+on the amount of validation and interoperability testing that has been
+performed on a given feature.
+
+
+
+1.2. Command Line Parameters
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Like many modules used in the Linux kernel, the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless
+2915ABG Driver for Linux allows configuration options to be provided
+as module parameters. The most common way to specify a module parameter
+is via the command line.
+
+The general form is:
+
+% modprobe ipw2200 parameter=value
+
+Where the supported parameter are:
+
