Package: ipw2000-source
Version: 1.0.6-1
Severity: important

Hi,

I do:

module-assistant a-i ieee80211-source
module-assistant a-i ipw220-source

then I copy firmware from ipw2200.sf.net (version for drivers 1.0.4 and
later) in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/ (as stated in README.firmware)

and finally,

modprobe ipw2200

after that the console freezes for some seconds.

dmesg says:

ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection
ipw2200: ipw-2.3-boot.fw load failed: Reason -2
ipw2200: Unable to load firmware: 0xFFFFFFFE
ipw2200: failed to register network device
ipw2200: probe of 0000:02:03.0 failed with error -5


I noticed that the problem is reported also on ipw2200 development
website[1]: they suggest to increase the default timeout. I tried it,
but it does not solve the problem. 

The module worked with sarge kernel and previous ipw2200-source version.
