I think the wpi firmware is for 2200 devices. The 3.1 firmware was the last release before it was incorporated into the Linux Kernel. My source and the firmware download page. Unless someone pulls this out of the linux kernel, this looks like a wifi chip to avoid.

This project was created by Intel to enable support for the Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection and Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection mini PCI adapters. This work has since been merged into the kernel where is has been for a few years now. This project is considered stable and Intel is no longer maintaining it.

Please direct your questions to the general wireless mailing list at linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org. Bugs can be submitted to Kernel Bugzilla.
