Don't sweat it, the firmware is not "touched", only read. "atime", or access time, may not be updated. > And even if i delete the > firmware files, i get no error message if i load the ipw2200 > module! Sounds like there is not an ipw2200 present. Can you check the output from /sbin/lspci and see that you have the correct wireless adapter that you think you have? According to my records, the T42 has an IBM Atheros wireless chipset, which needs the madwifi driver, not the ipw2100. See http://pmw.org/~gardnerj/Thinkpad/Install.html for details. If you really, really have got an ipw2200, perhaps you need to update to a newer version of the kernel driver. Post here and I'm sure we can help out.
