Subject: intel centrino && linux

Aquí os paso una URL donde se puede firmar para pedir a Intel que sus
Centrinos lleven soporte para GNU/Linux, pues hay partes que no funcionan
(personalmente había oido hablar de la tarjeta wireless que llevan
incorporada). Me parece que es bastante interesante pasarse y firmar :)

We request that Intel expand support for their Centrino Technology under the
Linux Operating Environment. Currently support is quite lacking and only half
of the technology has any form of drivers. Intel has flipped on the issue of
Linux. When Centrino was introduced they reported that Linux would indeed be
supported. Now, after conversing with them, they have said that they have no
plans at all to support Linux with respect to Centrino any more than they
have. They have refused the release of technical documents which would allow
Open Source Software (OSS) developers to write drivers which would allow for
support. Intel has a long history of supporting Linux but seems to have
decided that they no longer should. This is the first step to a complete drop
of Intel support for Linux. Intel only stands to gain by creating drivers as
it would expand their user base and create a greater sense of trust within
the Linux User Community.
