Hi all,
I have a Dell Inspiron 9300 Laptop, and is getting a problem with my
Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection miniPCI adapters.
Running FC4 with all updates & latest kernel at the time of writing.
I can see the card in the hardware browser, but when i try to add it
in the network setup i can not get it to work. The message says it
can not activate it. In the network setup it is detected as a regular
network card and not a wireless...
The WiFi indication light is also not working, but the bluetooth
indicator is lighting up, so it should be activated. (those are
turned on and of together)
Does "lsmod" show the ipw2200 driver as being loaded? That's required
for that card. If it's not loaded, try "modprobe ipw2200", then see if
"ifconfig -a" shows a "wlan0" entry (the name for the wireless card).
lsmod shows ipw2200 and on the next line ieee80211 wich uses ipw2200
The ifconfig -a only shows eth0 wich is the "normal" network card, the
lo & sit0. So it shows no wireless interface.
