Troubles with ipw2100 modules when booting

Hi!

Im using version 0.41. Everything works fine - except that I'm not able to start the device at boot time:

Quote:

ipw2100: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Driver, 0.41
ipw2100: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation Detected ipw2100 PCI device at 0000:02:02.0, dev: eth1, mem: 0x90000000-0x90000FFF -> e08c1000, irq: 5
eth1: Using hotplug firmware load.
eth1: Firmware not available or load failed
eth1: ipw2100_get_firmware failed: -2
eth1: Failed to power on the adapter.
eth1: Failed to start the firmware.
ipw2100: probe of 0000:02:02.0 failed with error -5

"Hotplug firmware loading support" is build in the kernel (2.6.6-rc2). When I load ipw2100 manually it works.

Any ideas??

Tobias
