Right, IPW2100 came with Legacy fw load first. Maybe that was dragged from long time ago and used incorrectly. I'm 100% sure that new versions of hotplug try to look at /lib/firmware and was /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware before, but there was some discussion that /lib would make more sense cause /usr could be dependant on other stuff. Jesper already signed the patch. .Alejandro - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
