Description of problem:
i have wireless Intel on Dell laptop it called "Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915"
i read in fedora core site release notes Fedora support this driver, when i
installed FC5 it can see the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 but i can't setup
as wireless adapter.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

You should only need the firmware-2.4 rpm as the kernel includes the
ieee80211 and ipw2200 modules, now standard. Did you try that way?

Comment 3 Akira TAGOH 2006-03-24 05:06:09 UTC
Please report this on http://bugzilla.atrpms.net/ as it described at the top
page of it. this isn't maintained by Fedora Project anyway.

Comment 4 Akira TAGOH 2006-03-24 05:40:05 UTC
doh, misreading. you need to install some firmware anyway. I suppose we won't
ship firmware package because you need to agree their license before install it.
