I use it for wireless cards (PCMCIA on my laptop running SUSE 9.0 and
PCI on my home box with a current Gentoo). It works as advertised. And,
they seem to keep up releases. If you need support for a listed card, it
is a solution. Of course, if the hardware suppliers provided cards this
would not be needed. I found myself with the two cards and it was
cheaper to buy driverloader than to replace the cards. Which, I guess,
is Linuxant's business model.
