  33. IP. STRIP is a radio protocol developed for the MosquitoNet project
  34. (on the WWW at <http://mosquitonet.stanford.edu/>) to send Internet
  35. traffic using Metricom radios. Metricom radios are small, battery
  36. powered, 100kbit/sec packet radio transceivers, about the size and
  37. weight of a cellular telephone. (You may also have heard them called
  38. "Metricom modems" but we avoid the term "modem" because it misleads
  39. many people into thinking that you can plug a Metricom modem into a
  40. phone line and use it as a modem.)
  41. You can use STRIP on any Linux machine with a serial port, although
  42. it is obviously most useful for people with laptop computers. If you

  381. If you enable this you will need a firmware file as well.
  382. You will need to copy this to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/isl3890.
  383. You can get this non-GPL'd firmware file from the Prism54 project page:
  384. <http://prism54.org>
  385. You will also need the /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent script from
  386. a current hotplug package.
  387. Note: You need a motherboard with DMA support to use any of these cards
  388. If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
  389. inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
  390. say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The module
  391. will be called prism54.ko.
