It's work for me the stock kernel driver too (I compile my own kernel):
[fonya@cella ~]$ lsmod
Module Size Used by
ipw2200 70440 0
[fonya@cella ~]$ modinfo ipw2200
filename:
/lib/modules/2.6.14-cella/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko
description: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver
version: 1.0.0
The diference betwen the kernel stock driver and the explanation form
Justin is the functionality of the driver the new version for example
add compatibility with wpa_supplicant and wext compatibility to support
WPA ans WPA2 and many others.
So, I add some ideas for the clean and fast instalation of ipw2200 /
ipw2100 in Fedora!
#IPW fast-do
#First login as root
su -
(put the root password on prompt)
#Make clean space:
mkdir -p /tmp/ipw
cd /tmp/ipw
#Get the files sources in /tmp/ipw
# http://ieee80211.sourceforge.net/downloads.php

wget -c

<http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/firmware.php> grab the 2.4 firmware
#Expand the file in /tmp/ipw

tar xvfz /home/justin/downloads/ipw2200/ipw2200-fw-2.4.tgz /lib/firmware
#Clean the old staff (files from the fedora kernel modules)
rm -rf /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw*
rm -rf /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/net/ieee80211
#Make the binary in /tmp/ipw
cd ieee80211-1.1.6
