Dear all,

this is the error message after I finally updated from 2.6.11 to 
2.6.13-gentoo-r3 (with the radeon_pm patch) on my R51. 

Both

emerge ipw2200 ieee80211 (and all the necessary crypto kernel mods)

and a manual install of ipw2200-1.0.6 and iee80211-1.0.3 yielded this result 
in dmesg:

ieee80211_crypt: registered algorithm 'NULL'

and a failure to load the ipw2200 module.

While it is not critical for me to use either the wireless card and/or the 
2.6.13 kernel, I'd like to have it running without problems anyway.

A google search search only got me to one posting on a German Debian mailing 
list, but no solution there either.

Anyone?
