Hi,
I just installed Fedora 7 and I can't get my ipw2200 wireless nic card
to work. It looks like the firmware, module, etc... is getting
loaded. One thing that is troubling is that the little wlan light
does not come on when I add the ipw2200 module. The laptop is an IBM
Thinkpad x40. I don't think that there is anything wrong with the
hardware because this laptop was working fine with Ubuntu Feisty.
Firmware is ipw2200-firmware-3.0-9. Here is output from dmesg, and
iwconfig:
dmesg:
