Hi guys,
I tried getting my wireless internet running on my Presario laptop but
after installing the ipw2200 firmware from freshrpms I still couldn't
get it working correctly. From the network device setting the Intel Pro
Wireless was recognised but it just wouldn't initialise, complaining
that the device might not be present. From dmesg message though, there
is an error related to ipw2200 couldn't get the IRQ setting assigned,
details attached below. What do I need to do to get it fixed? Thanks for
any help provided.
dmesg:
