Hallo, I'm using Fedora Core 4 on an IBM Thinkpad T42 with an ipw2200 abg card. I have installed the firmware from livna. After loading the driver with "modinfo ipw2200" the ieee80211and the ieee80211_crypt modules are also loaded, but not the firmware. And the system is not even trying to load it. "dmesg" only shows the following lines: ieee80211_crypt: registered algorithm 'NULL' ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.0.0 ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation Nothing about the firmware and the files in /lib/firmware are not touched. Thanks in advanced, Harald "Jetzt Handykosten senken mit klarmobil - 18 Ct./Min.! Hier klicken" www.klarmobil.de/index.html?pid=73025
