Does anyone know a good site which runs through the make menuconfig options for a newbie? I still need to know which options are needed for the ipw2200 and WPA/WEP.
You need "Networking > Generic IEEE 802.11 Networking Stack" and its sub-options (WEP, CCMP, TKIP) and "Device Drivers > Network Device Support > Wireless LAN (non-hamradio) > Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG and 2915ABG Network Connection". (I don't have my laptop here at the moment, therefore I might have forgotten something.) I don't think that you have to compile your own kernel, though. The stock Debian 2.6.15 kernel comes with all these modules. Just install the appropriate linux-image-2.6.15, boot into it and try "modprobe ipw2200". See also the bottom third of this old post: http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop/2006/01/msg00198.html The packages "wpasupplicant" and "wpagui" are very useful for configuring WPA-related behavior.
