I'm also having problems with my ipw2100 on a T41, and getting the firmware restart messages, but in dmesg, the firmware appears to load. I wonder if there might be another problem (this is Intrepid 2.6.27)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Downloads$ sudo iwconfig eth4 key 11122233344455566677788899 Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) : SET failed on device eth4 ; Operation not supported. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Downloads$ sudo iwconfig eth4 eth4 IEEE 802.11b ESSID:"himikeb4" Nickname:"ipw2100" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.422 GHz Access Point: 00:12:88:DC:D0:E9 Bit Rate=11 Mb/s Tx-Power:16 dBm Retry short limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off It seems that it is not setting the wireless key. Wireless was working great in 2.6.24. Also, lsmod seems to show 0 next to ipw2100, not sure if that is significant. I've tried disabling/enabling using the hotkey (I saw this somewhere else), and rmmod / modprobe ipw2100, with no luck. sudo lspci -vvnn: 02:02.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter [8086:1043] (rev 04) Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device [8086:2551] Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV+ VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Latency: 64 (500ns min, 8500ns max), Cache Line Size: 32 bytes Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11 Region 0: Memory at c0214000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1- D2- AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot-,D3cold-) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=1 PME- Kernel driver in use: ipw2100 Kernel modules: ipw2100 More interesting stuff from dmesg: [ 3179.878932] eth4: could not initialize WEP: load module ieee80211_crypt_wep [ 3365.928077] ipw2100: exit - failed to send CARD_DISABLE command [ 3531.348096] ipw2100: Fatal interrupt.
