Package: ipw2100-source Version: 1.1.3-1 Severity: important Hello,
I am not sure, whether I should contact the ipw2000 maintainer directly, if so I apologise for the following bug report. First I installed Knoppix 3.7 which ships a 2.6.9 and 2.4.27 kernel, that system has the ipw2100 driver installed, which corresponds to the 1.2 version of firmware. I recently tried to compile and install a 2.6.10 kernel and so installed the corresponding kernel header and the ipw2100-source package which corresponds in my understanding to the 1.3 version of firmware. So I installed the relevant fw files. However when booted the new kernel the wireless card was no longer recognised. The strange thing is that the relevant moduls seems to be loaded. ipw2100 150756 0 firmware_class 10368 1 ipw2100 evdev 9600 0 ieee80211 45544 1 ipw2100 ieee80211_crypt 6404 2 ipw2100,ieee80211 ieee1394 110644 0 But when reading dmesg I found mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice ieee80211_crypt: registered algorithm 'NULL' ieee80211: 802.11 data/management/control stack, 1.1.6 ieee80211: Copyright (C) 2004-2005 Intel Corporation <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ipw2100: no version for "ieee80211_get_crypto_ops" found: kernel tainted. ipw2100: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Driver, 1.1.3 ipw2100: Copyright(c) 2003-2005 Intel Corporation ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKF] enabled at IRQ 11 ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:02:02.0[A] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 ipw2100: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Connection ipw2100: eth0: Firmware 'ipw2100-1.3.fw' not available or load failed. ipw2100: eth0: ipw2100_get_firmware failed: -2 ipw2100: eth0: Failed to power on the adapter. ipw2100: eth0: Failed to start the firmware. ipw2100Error calling register_netdev. ipw2100: probe of 0000:02:02.0 failed with error -5 But ipw2100-1.3.fw is in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware (Together with version 1.2 of) Do I miss some init script, I even used the 2.6.9 config script of knoppix for the kernel and recompiled, it did not work.
