Dell 700m, MEPIS 3.4-3RC, Dual Boot WinXP, KDE 3.4, Kernel 2.6.15-1-586tsc
I am trying to load a Intel PRO 2200BG Wireless driver: I am following these instructions
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=13576/
I have checked what kernel I have. It is as stated above.
But when I try to install linux-headers for this kernel I get an error
Code:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-2.6.15-1-586tsc
As a result i am unable to make and compile the new driver. Acn someone guide me here.
I have posted in an earlier post on the MEPIS forums that my wireless is not working, but here is what is wrong:
The hardware seems to have been recognized (KWifiManager and OS Center) can both see this, and only under root login can KWifiManager scan signals. The problem is that it unable to connect (ie lock the signal). My hotkey fn+F2 also does not light up.
I checked in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/ and the ipw2200 file is not there; so I figured that the wireless card was not 100% detected???? I am therefore trying to install the proper driver.
Sorry to burden you all,
