There is no real documentation about this chipset available. Ian Molton has access to other platforms with the w100 (Toshiba e-series) and so between us, we've improved w100fb and made it platform independent. Ian Molton also added support for the very similar w3220 and w3200 chipsets. There are a lot of changes here and it nearly amounts to a rewrite of the driver but it has been extensively tested and is being used in preference to the original driver in the Zaurus community. I'd therefore like to update the mainline code to reflect this.
