I installed kernel 2.6.10-1.770_FC3 in a Sony Vaio VGN S260. If I boot with the wireless switch on, in the log messages I find Mar 9 15:49:43 antoy kernel: ipw2200: ipw2200_boot.fw load failed Mar 9 15:49:43 antoy kernel: ipw2200: Unable to load firmware: 0xFFFFFFFE Mar 9 15:49:44 antoy kernel: ipw2200: failed to register network device Mar 9 15:49:48 antoy kernel: ipw2200: probe of 0000:02:0b.0 failed with error - If I boot with the switch off, the system dies when I turn the switch on. No messages in the case. The wireless card used to work in an older kernel. Sergio
