lspci output does not depend on module presence. With or without the
module, lspci would display the same thing. For example, in mine, I
have this:

0b:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] 
Network Connection (rev 02)

What does yours say?

No, just after the modprobe, do dmesg|less and scroll to the end, If
you see any output related to ipw2200, please paste the relevant lines
here.

Thanks.
