I meant the most recent Intel chipset. See
http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/ (specifically the Requirements section)

It has been widely suggested that they designed it so the binary daemon
could be worked around, but I'm not sure if any distributions have been
brave enough to try it.

Even with a binary userspace daemon, you're far better off than with
binary kernel driver

Cheerio,
