    Detection of internal wifi fails

    i am using a winbook v220 for this, the specs are as follows:


    WinBook V220 Notebook

    Operating System Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition

    Processor IntelŪ PentiumŪ 4 Processor

    Processor Speed 2.8GHz

    Level 1 Cache 8KB Level 1 Cache + 12,000 uOps Trace Cache

    Level 2 Cache 512KB Level 2 Cache

    Data Bus Speed 400MHz Frontside Bus

    RAM Installed 512MB PC-2700 DDR RAM (Expandable to 512MB)

    Memory Configuration (1) 512MB SO-DIMM Memory Module

    Memory Slots Available 0 available 200-pin SO-DIMM Slots

    Hard Drive 60GB UltraDMA ATA/100 Hard Drive

    Multimedia Drive Combo 8x DVD-ROM / 24x10x24 CD-RW Drive

    Display Type 15.0" XGA Active Matrix Display

    Video Card Integrated 4x AGP SiS M661FX Video Chipset

    Video Memory Installed Up to 64MB of Shared Memory

    Internal Max Resolution 1024 x 768 at 24-bit (16.7M colors)

    Sound Card Integrated SoundBlaster Pro Compatible Audio Chipset

    Sound Output Mode 16-bit Stereo

    Audio Input Integrated Mono Microphone

    Modem Integrated 56K V.90 Fax/Modem Adapter

    Data transfer rate 56Kbps Data / 14.4Kbps Fax

    Network Features Integrated 10/100 Fast Ethernet Adapter

    Wireless Network Feature Integrated IEEE-802.11b/g 54Mbps Wireless Network Adapter

    Ports and Connectors (1) Parallel 25-pin Port; (1) VGA 15-pin Port; (1) TV Out S-Video Port; (2) USB 2.0 Type "A" Ports; (1) FireWire 4- Port; (1) Modem RJ-11 Port; (1) Network RJ-45 Port; (1) Microphone Port; (1) Audio Line Out Port

    Expansion Slots 1 (1 free) Cardbus PCMCIA type I or II Slot

    Input Devices Keyboard, Touchpad

    Power Supply Universal AC adapter



    now the way i understand it, this uses the intel pro chipset 2200

    i can modprobe ipw2200 and its loads well, no errors. but iwconfig tells me theres no wireless adaptters found.

    If your wifi card is ipw2200, then do the following:
    create the following file /etc/init.d/ipw2200:
    __________ Strat below this line ___________
    #!/bin/sh
    #
    modprobe -r ipw2200
    modprobe ipw2200
    ifup -a
    ________ Stop above this line ______________
    save it and execute the following command with root preveilage:
    chmod +x /etc/init.d/ipw2200
    then run rcconf and select ipw2200 and hit ok.

    To test it, just run /etc/init.d/ipw2200 and should work. if it does not, just setup the essid from KNOPPIX menu. If it works fine, it will detect it every time you reboot your system.
