[gobolinux-users] IPW2200 unable to load firmware; firmware package is installed

Sun Aug 19 21:05:04 UTC 2007

IPW2200 is not a module but compiled into the kernel for me? Could that 
be an issue? It shouldn't be...

Hmmm....the plot thickens but we may be close to an answere here...the 
modprobe rules file is here:
There are quite a few 05, 10- files that are not the persistent ones but 
they were all distributed with the recipe...maybe the recipe is broken 
...which version of udev are you on? I could go back to that and check....

../../../../Programs/Module-Init-Tools/Settings/udev/rules.d/60-modprobe.rules

Also Module-Init-Tools is at 3.2.2...but the settings and the file 
distributed with the version is the same
