I'm not using a Debian kernel, but a custom 2.6.17.3. I left the ipw2200 module out of the kernel and compiled the 1.1.0 after installation. To get a working module i needed to install the network stack first. http://ieee80211.sourceforge.net/ The 2.4 firmware is placed in " /lib/firmware/" and my wifi is working. Although I'm having problem with wpa, but i haven't had time to troubleshoot. So will properly soon work.. Is your wifi working? When I was using hotplug, I always placed my firmware in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/. Best of luck. /Lars -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
