Either you/the updater deleted the firmware, or you upgraded to a new
hotplug that uses a different directory for the firmware.
Or, thinking about it a little more, if you've upgraded the ipw2100
drivers, read the changelog/readme - they moved the firmware load to
require hotplug, so if you don't have the firmware installed in the
hotplug directories, it isn't going to work.
