Hi - my original kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.15-gentoo-r1 runs wireless fine with ipw2200 and ipw2200-firmware. After upgrading to kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.13-gentoo-r5 I was experiencing conflicts as in order to continue using these tools I had to disable the IEEE802.11 subsystem and rebuild my kernel. I've tried very configuration I can think of (without success). Below is my latest effort can, anyone offer advice? Many thanks, Richard
