No problem! We are all busy people! :)

 Well yes and no. The laptop running knoppix, various kernels 2.6.10,
 2.6.13 and 2.6.15 have these problems. I should add that I compiled
 that kernels myself.

I do not think custom kernels should be a problem. But as I always use
the Debian supplied ones, I am not aware of the details.

 Given the fact that the problem seems to be connected with privately
 compiled kernels, do you still want to be to  install the latest
 debian kernel??? (I presume apt-get install linux-image-2.6.18-1-ARCH
 and rebooting (I use grub) should be fine?)

It would be great if you tried that. You can always boot your custom
kernel when you want, but trying the debian kernel is important in order
to be able to close this bug. 

You said the Etch kernel works, so I think the new one should work too.
In fact it works for me (using it to write this email over ssh).

Thanks for any input you can provide :)

Hi Amaya

Sorry for the delay.
   amaya Hi, Uwe

   amaya Did you make any progress on this issue?

Well yes and no. The laptop running knoppix, various kernels 2.6.10,
2.6.13 and 2.6.15 have these problems. I should add that I compiled
that kernels myself.

I installed on the Laptop I am currently using, directly debian etch
and not any longer knoppix, the kernel which is shipped with etch ie
2.6.15-1-486 works fine with that card!

   amaya Daniel told me that he is working on ipw* this weekend and I would 
like
   amaya you to look at bug http://bugs.debian.org/337920

   amaya If you upgrade to the latest available kernel version in
   amaya Debian (linux-image-2.6.18-1-ARCH), and the update ipw2100
   amaya to the version Daniel is about to upload, I think this bug
   amaya should be fixed too.

Well honestly the only thing I never did (or dared to do) was to install
a debian kernel. I usually take what comes with the installation or
compile it myself.

Given the fact that the problem seems to be connected with privately
compiled kernels, do you still want to be to  install the latest
debian kernel??? (I presume apt-get install linux-image-2.6.18-1-ARCH
and rebooting (I use grub) should be fine?)

Regards

Uwe

Hi, Uwe

Did you make any progress on this issue?
Daniel told me that he is working on ipw* this weekend and I would like
you to look at bug http://bugs.debian.org/337920

If you upgrade to the latest available kernel version in Debian
(linux-image-2.6.18-1-ARCH), and the update ipw2100 to the version
Daniel is about to upload, I think this bug should be fixed too. 

I am feeling tempted to merge both reports, how do you feel about this?
