I'll have an ipw3945-equipped notebook (a Thinkpad R60 with Core Duo 
CPU) next week, but I'm not a programmer, so I don't know how to port 
device drivers. Can I just copy over the ipw3945 driver from OpenBSD or 
the alpha driver from FreeBSD into DragonFly's source tree and compile 
it without modifications?
