As shown in the following, driwer module file ipw2200 is only present in kernel version 23. Whereas the new kernel version 29 contains driver module file ipw2100 which does not seem to be compatible with my wireless card PRO/Wireless 2015ABG. linux-326k:/lib/modules # du -a | egrep ipw2 228 ./2.6.27.23-0.1-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko 124 ./2.6.27.29-0.1-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2100.ko Any suggestion or explanation to get my wireless connection back ? Thank you in advance. Maura --- Mer 7/10/09, Angelo Margarino ha scritto:

I supposed that even if the hand-load of module succeded, it not loaded the others modules needed for wi-fi layer to works... The question is: in our lsmod list, only the ipw2200 module is missing and if others using it are missing, by loading it they should be loaded too by system?

Thanks! Angelo
