If I use a newer kernel (such as 2133 or 2157) it works fine in level 3 text mode, but starting Gnome causes it to stop after a few seconds or a couple of minutes. I can't restart it except by rebooting. I don't know why something can be so variable, and don't know where to go from here. As far as I can see, no logs tell me anything. Output from ifconfig and iwconfig seem to be the same before and after this occurs. Thanks for any suggestions.

If you are useing ndiswrapper and you have not established a 16k stack in your kernel the wireless use of the stack plus gnomes use of the stack may well blow your current 4k stack. A thought.
ipw2200 doesn't require ndiswrapper. If it works in runlevel 3, then he has the right firmware (check ipw2200-firmware-3.0-1.lvn5 from Livna, though).
Take a look at http://www.ces.clemson.edu/linux too.
Good hunting! Tod
