[colug-432] Intel Centrino

[tom]

Whats with Intel Centrino? Linux does not seem to like it. I decided to 
load XP PRO on my Latitude D600, so I could see if the Intel BG2200 
wireless card would function.

A little back story. I installed retroprecise 5.4.3 on it as nothing 
else Linux would install with the Centrino except DSL. The Linux driver 
did not work well with the wireless. Poorly. I decided to use the 
Ndiswrapper. I tried lots of appropriate windows drivers to no avail. I 
then thought install XP and see which driver is running the wireless, 
then use that driver on the drive that has retroprecise.

I decided to install SolidWorks on the drive I put XP on while I was at 
it. That Windows software did not like the centrino either!!
