yes, this is what I know... IMHO the /problem/ is that Nigel's project
site is 'swsusp.sf.net', so far confusing for a newbie (who doesn't know
the whole story).

The same here if I leave 'ndiswrapper' loaded. IMHO the problem with all
the NDIS wrapper (Linuxand and NDISwrapper) is that they aren't Linux
native drivers, so it could be more difficult to implement power
management. Anyway, I'll pass to a native Linux Intel Centrino driver,
as soon as it will be one: Jon Lech Johansen started one which could
read the MAC address, but his site is no more on and I can't find other
info :-( (BTW, I don't have the capacities to continue his work)

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
