The kernel driver is there but Debian doesn't ship with the binary
only firmware from Intel. Download the firmware at
http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net and extract the contents into
/lib/firmware. You may need to create the directory if it doesn't
exist. Then reload the driver:
rmmod ipw2200
modprobe 2200
I'm not sure but I think you need version 3 of the firmware for that
particular kernel.
