28 .Nd "Firmware Module for Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG/2225BG/2915ABG driver"
30 To compile this module into the kernel,
31 place the following line in your
32 kernel configuration file:
33 .Bd -ragged -offset indent
37 This will include three firmware images inside the kernel.
38 If you want to pick only the firmware image for the mode you want to operate
39 your network adapter in choose one of the following:
40 .Bd -ragged -offset indent
42 .Cd "device iwiibssfw"
43 .Cd "device iwimonitorfw"
46 Alternatively, to load the driver as a
47 module at boot time, place the following lines in
49 .Bd -literal -offset indent
52 iwi_monitor_load="YES"
55 This module provides access to firmware sets for the
56 Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG/2225BG/2915ABG series of IEEE 802.11 adapters.
57 It may be statically linked into the kernel, or loaded as a module.
59 For the loaded firmware to be enabled for use the license at
60 .Pa /usr/share/doc/legal/intel_iwi.LICENSE
61 must be agreed to by adding the following line to
64 .Dl "legal.intel_iwi.license_ack=1"
66 .Bl -tag -width ".Pa /usr/share/doc/legal/intel_iwi.LICENSE" -compact
67 .It Pa /usr/share/doc/legal/intel_iwi.LICENSE
