I recently installed FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE on an ibm x40 thinkpad. I have everything working as it should, except for the ipw 2200 bg wireless card. I have everything (more or less) set up, my kernel configuration file has everything the man page says it should. My /boot/loader.conf file has everything recommended for it to have. However, when I use ifconfig to connect to my wireless network, I get "iwi0: firmware error iwi0: firmware error iwi0: device configuration failed" I honestly have no idea how this is happening. Help would be much appreciated, thanks. -- Michael Brindle kg6ymn@gmail.com
