FreeBSD and Centrino

[Tony Saign]

The Intel 2100 miniPCI card is a symbol based chipset.
Swapping miniPCI cards would be the cheapest quickest resolution.
Intel has no plans to offer a driver for these currently.

I've seen quite a few people mention that the 802.11b card inside their
laptop isn't supported.  Usually those things are just mini-pci cards.
Has anyone given any thought (or tried) to putting in an orinoco or
prism based mini-pci card in it's place?
