Package: linux-image-2.6.21-2-686
Version: 2.6.21-5
(Linux R2 2.6.21-2-686 #1 SMP Mon Jun 25 20:53:36 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux)
This is an interesting one. I'm using lenny on a Thinkpad X40, x86,
32-bit, single-core, and have been struggling today to get my ipw2200
to work with the new kernel.
Up until know I've been compiling my kernel from the debian source
package, previously using 2.6.18. I would compile in support for the
ipw2200 in xconfig and placed the firmware in /lib/firmware (firmware is
v3.0 FWIW). This has worked very well for me for a long time.
Recently I convinced myself of the logic of using the debian stock
kernel and decided that when 2.6.21 arrived that I would switch to your
stock kernel.
I installed linux-image-2.6.21-2-686 and everything apart from the
ipw2200 works. During bootup, dmesg provides this output (and just
output) for the ipw2200:
ipw2200: Unknown parameter `rtap_iface'
:( This is quite frustrating and have tried playing with modprobe but
it still gives the same error message in dmesg whenever I try it.
Interestingly enough, I get the same message even when I installed
ipw2200-modules-2.6.21-2-686 or even if I built ipw2200 from the debian
source package.
If you'd like any more information from me, please don't hesitate to get
in touch.
