List of available drivers includes (see manual): HostAP, Prism54, Madwifi, NDISWrapper, AMTEL, IPW (both 2100 and 2200 drivers), WEXT (Generic Linux wireless extensions), Wired ethernet. Of those most interesting are WEXT (which is in use for 70% Wifi devices), NDISWrapper if you're using Windows drivers, wrapped by Linux compatibility layer and Madwifi, if you're using aircrack. Though, I don't understand from the architectural point of view, what level those drivers represent.
