There are rpms for driver and firmware: http://atrpms.net/dist/fc3/ipw2200/ http://atrpms.net/dist/common/ipw2200-firmware/ If you have ATrpms enabled, all you need to do is apt-get install kernel-module-ipw2200-`uname -r` ipw2200 and write a ifcfg-ethN confiog file (perhaps some system-config-* can already do that for you after installing the driver). > First, i have to load the driver manually with ./load witch outputs this > error .... > ( if i dont load them, eth1 is not displayed ) > > [root@xr-mobile ipw2200-0.13]# ./load > No modules unloaded. > FATAL: Module firmware_class not found. > Loaded: ieee80211_crypt ieee80211 ieee80211_crypt_wep ipw2200 > > [ *snip* files in /lib/firmware/ ] > [root@xr-mobile firmware]# ls ip* > ipw2200_boot.fw ipw2200_bss.fw ipw2200_ibss.fw ipw2200_ucode.fw > [ *snip* ] > > > [root@xr-mobile ipw2200-0.13]# iwconfig > lo no wireless extensions. > > eth0 no wireless extensions. > > sit0 no wireless extensions. > > eth1 unassociated ESSID:"Auto" Nickname:"xr-mobile" > Mode:Managed Channel=0 Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00 > Bit Rate=0kb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm > RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off > Encryption key:off > Power Management:off > > I´m a linux beginner, so i was very happy that the wireless tools are > already available via yum - dont even think about kernel configuration ;-) > > Any ideas ? > Hope i dont spam around with this problem. > > Regards > > Jens Frieben > -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
