Same problem for me :
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
$ sudo modprobe ipw2200
$
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
lsmod gives :
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
...
ipw2200 188424 0
ieee80211 52100 1 ipw2200
ieee80211_crypt 6340 2 ipw2200,ieee80211
...
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
iwconfig :
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
$ sudo iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
sit0 no wireless extensions.
$
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
I have an X41 and I use Debian sid, with 2.6.12 (recompiled myself) and
ipw2200 module from contrib debian package with latest firmware.
The Wireless activation led is not lit, and I do not know how to
activate/deactivate the wireless card. I installed tpb and with the out of
the box configuration Fn-F5 just switch bluetooth on/off.
Any hint on what to do now ?
Thanks a lot,
Vincent
