I use UDEV 0.070-2 and it doesn't load the Firmware of the IPW2200 so I got the same error like in the first message at this bug. The correct Firmware are at "/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/". When I use a Kernal <2.6.12 where UDEV is deactivated everythings right. With the following pedantically steps it works with Kernel 2.6.13.2 too:

Creating the File "/etc/udev/rules.d/999-firmware.rules" and this line within:
ACTION="" SUBSYSTEM=="firmware", RUN+="/sbin/firmware_helper"

Run these Lines in this order:
echo /sbin/hotplug > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
rmmod ipw2200 ieee80211 ieee80211_crypt
/etc/init.d/hotplug stop
/etc/init.d/udev restart
modprobe ipw2200
/etc/init.d/hotplug start

I would be very grateful, if UDEV would load the firmware directly.
