Since lspci does not show the 2200BG, I strongly suspect it was never present. It is possible, however, that it came on a miniPCI adapter, internally, and that has somehow become loose. If you are comfortable opening up your machine, you could look for that. -dsr- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
