no i dont think that should be the problem. i have had this same
machine working fine with debian based puredyne and ubuntu jaunty
before and i did not need ndiswrapper ever.
If I do lspci I dont get any wireless device listed. I should get
this line listed
02:02.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG
[Calexico2] Network Connection (rev 05)
but instead i get
02:02.0 Cardbus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1410 PC card Cardbus
Controller (rev 01)
yeah but what does
lspci | grep Wireless
says?
nothing. even now that it is working still does not display any pci
device related to the wireless
So i am not sure about what I need to do. I am seaching online and I
got this
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Debian_5.0_%28Lenny%29_on_a_ThinkPad_X32#Integrated_wireless
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Ipw2200
looks like i need to load the ipw2200 module and to install the
firmware. I am downloading it, i hope to be able to fix this
myself...
If something is missing, think about making a bug report, that's the
best way to tell us if something needs to be added.
Apart from the wifi card issue I also noticed that the graphics are
a bit funny. As I start applications and move between workspaces the
fonts and window decorations start to get screwed up with artifacts.
I remember getting this once I was tweaking some xorg.conf options
to improve performace. Sometimes it is quite anoying since the fonts
get totally unreadable. I checked xorg.conf but that configuration
file is not used anymore... Watching videos in youtube is funny as
well, i get to see the video but the video refresh is very slow like
if there was no DRI however this is on if i do glxinfo. The graphics
card is a ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY
Yeah there is something weird going on with this one:

thanks. i added a description of the bug i get in there
A good thing to do would be to check in launchpad and other bug trackers
if there are some issues with the current xorg driver for this card.
one more thing... is it possible to customise the Xfce menu? I see
that Xfce works nicely so the only reason i am still sticking to
fluxbox over xfce is because there i can easily manipulate the right
click menu.

thanks but i think i finally will stick to fluxbox by now, for some
reason i cannot get used to use a desktop with icons anymore. i love
fluxbox + Xfe !
