ipw2100 input/output error + firmware problems
Hi all,
I'm running Suse 9.1 Pro and trying to get the internet set up with my Intel Centrino 2100 card. I've tried downloading drivers and editing scripts, but I think I'm looking in the wrong place.
#iwconfig eth0 mode Managed # gives me a
"Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
SET failed on device eth0; Input/output error"
On top of that dmesg gives me
"
eth0: Using hotplug firmware load.
eth0: Firmare not available or load failed
eth0: ipw2100_get_firmware failed: -2
eth0: Failed to power on the adapter.
eth0: Failed to start the firmware.
"
So, it looks like my firmware might be in the wrong place. Any ideas where it should be? I tried downloading firmware and drivers from the ipw2100.sourceforge.net site, and I placed the firmware files in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmare/.
I'm not sure what to do from here...
Any ideas guys?
Thanks.
