From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040207 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: During init the ipw2100 (Intet Pro Wireless 2100) driver is unable to load it's firmware via hotplug. Once the system is started, firmware loading works fine by doing rmmod ipw2100; modprobe ipw2100. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): hotplug-2004_04_01-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compile and install ipw2100 driver according to instructions in URL 2. reboot system Actual Results: Network adapter is not recognized. dmesg shows the following: ipw2100: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Driver, 0.43 ipw2100: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation Detected ipw2100 PCI device at 0000:02:02.0, dev: eth1, mem: 0x90000000-0x90000FFF -> e1992000, irq: 5 eth1: Firmware 'ipw2100-1.0.fw' 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 Expected Results: dmesg should have shown the following: ipw2100: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Driver, 0.43 ipw2100: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation divert: allocating divert_blk for eth1 Detected ipw2100 PCI device at 0000:02:02.0, dev: eth1, mem: 0x90000000-0x90000FFF -> e1a1b000, irq: 5 eth1: Using hotplug firmware load. Additional info: I fixed this by downloading http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/linux-hotplug/hotplug-2004_03_29.tar.gz?download and copying /hotplug-2004_03_29/etc/rc.d/init.d/hotplug from that archive to /etc/init.d/hotplug followed by a "chkconfig --add hotplug". After this the firmware loads fine during init.
