I'm not saying I'm not going to support it in the future. But currently
ipw2100 doesn't support big endian machines is the truth. One reason is
because I don't have such a box with an ipw2100 card. If you or someone
has such a platform and is willing to try patches for me, I'm happy to
get this done. That's why the ipw2200 driver has the BE supported.
Thanks,
