5.0 - Works great. (Intel 2200BG)

I'm trying to make work my wireless network card Intel 2200BG in my laptop Acer Travelmate 4002WLMI.

I tried so far:

$ sudo lshw -C network *-network:1 description: Wireless interface product: PRO/Wireless 2200BG [Calexico2] Network Connection vendor: Intel Corporation physical id: 4 bus info: pci@0000:02:04.0 logical name: eth1 version: 05

Nothing is working, sorry for the delay but i was out for a time .What is this?:[ 5.276082] ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.2.2kmprq [ 5.276085] ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation [ 5.276153] ipw2200 0000:02:04.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 21 [ 5.279202] Intel ICH 0000:00:1e.2: PCI INT B -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 1

i know its an old network card and needs drivers but iam new to linux and would love some help here

andy@andy-330:~$ sudo lshw -C network *-network:0 DISABLED description: Wireless interface product: PRO/Wireless 2200BG [Calexico2] Network Connection vendor: Intel Corporation physical id: 5 bus info: pci@0000:00:05.0 logical name: eth1 vers

It seems as if the drivers of the intel 2200BG wireless adapter are not installed. Reason for thinking so, I can't switch the wireless button on and off in the 'new' ubuntu (10-10-2012, latest download).

Im noob with ubuntu code.. but it would be great if someone could help out.

Thnx

HiThis is not a question but a solution for others with same issue as me.I tried Chakra with livecd and installed to hdd too on my IBM R52 laptop, but the system not recognized my wifi automatically so I could not set my internet connection (however /lib/firmware folder contains ipw2200-bss.fw driver needed my wifi).Fortunately I found solution recognizing wifi on Arch wiki.

Just installed Ubuntu 9.04 everything works fine compiz works fine LAN:Intel Corporation 82801DB PRO/100 VE works WLAN:Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG,not original from dell, card from other laptop, works CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI45...

I installed Ubuntu 9.10 last night on my laptop. This is my first time with Ubuntu. Everything seems great except that when I push the button on the laptop to enable the wireless connection it just flashes, it never turns on all the way. This is the same behavior I get in windows before the driver is installed. I've looked around, but I can't see how to install a driver for it.

Hey guysSwitched to systemd a while ago, finally removed initscripts today.Only problem I'm having is my wifi module is not loading by itself.bryan@pluto /etc/modules-load.d $ ls -l total 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35 Sep 9 21:07 cpufreq.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 40 Nov 23 18:57 ipw2200.conf bryan@pluto /etc/modules-load.d $ cat ipw2200.conf # Load intel 2200bg wifi driver ipw2200 bryan@plu

Hi All,

I cannot connect my Sony Viao laptop to wireless. It just will not seem to connect. I am a bit of a n00b i am afraid so go easy on me ;) I have been through /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200 does exist.
