LINUXANT RELEASES DRIVERLOADER 2.0 WITH USB SUPPORT AND ENHANCED 
COMPATIBILITY

MONTREAL, QC Aug. 10, 2004 - Linuxant inc. is proud to announce the 
immediate
availability of DriverLoader 2.0, featuring major improvements such as
significantly enhanced compatibility and support for USB Wireless LAN 
adapters
with 802.11g technology and state-of-the-art Wi-Fi Protected Access 
(WPA)
security.

DriverLoader is a revolutionary compatibility-wrapper allowing standard
Windows NDIS (Network Driver Interface Specification) drivers shipped by
hardware vendors to be used as-is on Linux x86 systems. RNDIS (Remote 
NDIS) is
now also supported for USB.

DriverLoader technology is the ideal Linux solution to support devices 
for
which no adequate native open-source drivers are available. It also 
allows
vendors to drastically reduce time to market.

The latest release of DriverLoader can be downloaded from Linuxant's 
web site
and also features compatibility with Texas Instruments, Intel 
PRO/Wireless
(Centrino), Broadcom, Conexant/GlobespanVirata/Intersil Prism 
GT/Duette/Indigo,
Cisco, INPROCOMM, Marvell, Realtek, ZyDAS, Atheros and other Wireless 
LAN
chipsets.

The software is easy to install on standard Linux distributions 
(RedHat/Fedora,
SuSE, Mandrake, TurboLinux, Debian, and derivatives) with any recent 
2.4 or 2.6
kernel, and includes a user-friendly Web-based configuration system and
professional online technical support. Current users of DriverLoader can
upgrade to the latest version at no charge.

Vendors interested in using DriverLoader technology to enable their 
products
under Linux should contact services at linuxant.com.
