Hi David,
I actually helped a friend troubleshoot an ipw2200 card on an Amilo series
laptop last week. Make sure you have emerged net-wireless/ipw2200-firmware and
have run etc-update prior to loading the driver.
Regards,
Alex

Hi,
You said:
2. In the INSTALL document of ipw2200 (taken from the generic package)
is an explenation about sysfs which should be mounted. It seems to me it
is mounted by default even though it is not in mtab (can't see it in df
unless you are in /sys and do df .)
I assume there is no proble
Thanks for all of you who replied. Unfortunately none of the
recommendations worked but if you don't mind I would like to get more of
your advice.
1. How can I track which file is attempted to be loaded to the firmware

Hello,
It could be a wrong firmware problem OR wrong path, as was suggested
The error "request_firmware failed: Reason..." stems from the call to request_firmware(), which is the generic kernel
method for loading firmware. ( If you want more details, look at the kernel module drivers/base/f
Hi,
I have what looks like the same problem on an IBM r50e portable
computer. After I do modprobe two or three times manually the problem
goes away, so obviously the firmware is there.
Why it takes more then one attempt s what puzzels me?!!

Thanks for your reply.
Seems to me the driver is installed correctly (I reinstalled and tried
older versions also). It resides in: /lib/firmware/ipw2200-bss.fw (older
versions have the names somewhat different).
I couldn't figure out how modprobe loads the right file and I didn't
find any t
There are two things
you can try:
1) echo 100 >
/sys/class/firmware/timeout
to increase the default
timeout value.
2) try removing the
packages installing the driver/firmware from sourceforge
Take a look at
http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/#downloads...
It mentions the timeout

Just a wild guess here, but Linux error number -2 is ENOENT ("No such
file or directory"). I'd see it as a strong hint the driver wants to
load the firmware off a disk file, perhaps supplied through a parameter
(see 'modinfo ipw2200'), and fails to find it.

Actually, Ralink ( http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/ ) and Intel
( http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/ ) are just as friendly. Atheros
( http://madwifi.sourceforge.net/ ) was also friendly enough, though
they still hide some details inside a binary object (not kernel version

If you do use zd1211 - few things to note:
1) Last time I checked, the released tar.gz on sourceforge did not work. Use the cvs version.
2) There's also another development branch on subversion:
http://zd1211.ath.cx/
That IS the same project, but the two branches are not fully
merged yet,
ot perfect - but works.
