|
|
I've read everything in these forums that could apply (via search & manually scanning) but I've yet to see a resolution. I've got the same problem.
Just dl'ed DSL-N (RC4), created a LiveCD to practice with. but IPW2200 card doesn't work. Note that I dl'ed a LiveCD of Xubuntu and the IPW2200 card works fine. (both supposedly running the same kernel [2.6], although I don't know how to verify via cli Xubuntu)
In DSL-N, lspci gives:
0000:01:07 Network Controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (rev 05)
lsmod gives:
ipw2200 127336 0
firmware_class 1139 1 ipw2200
ieee80211 38564 1 ipw2200
ieee80211_crypt 8684 2 ipw2200,ieee 8021
dmesg gives:
ipw2200: ipw-2.2-boot.fw laod failed: reason -2
ipw2200: unable to load firmware: 0xFFFFFFFE
ipw2200: failed to regisiter network device
ipw2200: probe of 0000:01:07.0 failed with error -5
Now I may have missed part of this, as I posted only what I wrote down on paper, I have to boot between doze & LiveCD to work on this.
Also I kmow what lspci & lsmod are (not error results of these though). But I have no idea what Dmesg is. It is included as I've seen others post it.
Here is same from Xubuntu....
lspci:
01:07.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection (rev 05)
lsmod:
ipw2200 113476 0
ieee80211 33608 1 ipw2200
ieee80211_crypt 6016 1 ieee80211
dmesg:
[17179712.720000] ieee80211_crypt: registered algorithm 'NULL'

Since the ipw2200 card worked under Xubuntu I could C&P this last info  |

got same message error on knoppix 4.0 cd
I had firmware files in libs/firmware and the wirless network works
however, firmware are not good, maybe wrong version, cause I get disconnected often and got in dmesg problem loading/ recognizing the firmware, still looking around to resolve the problem.
