I have a Eurocom/Clevo D470K athlon64 laptop with ipw2200 wireless builtin.
I am running the latest Suse 9.2 Pro + IPW drivers available by YOU
the card is detected at boot time and the kernel modules are loaded in
lsmod | grep ipw
ipw2200 120084 0
firmware_class 11264 1 ipw2200
ieee80211 32484 1 ipw2200
ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet addr:192.168.10.33 Bcast:192.168.10.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
using my pcmcia 802.11b card i can connect to wireless networks without
issue.
However, I cannot get the builtin ipw2200 to connect to the network.
How do I find out if the upcoming 9.3 release will support the intel ipw2200 under the amd64
architecture? I have a spare partition I can load a recent 9.3 snapshot, if such is available for
testing?
Thanks
