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@linuxant.com.
