Package: hotplug
Version: 0.0.20040329-17
Severity: normal
I've been using ipw2200 successfully with the previous hotplug
version, 0.0.20040329-16. Following a dist-upgrade, my hotplug was
upgraded to 0.0.20040329-17, and after the next reboot, my ipw2200
wireless driver could no longer get its firmware loaded (via
hotplug). Reverting to hotplug version 0.0.20040329-16 (and making no
other changes to my configuration) caused the problem to go away.
Lines logged in /var/log/kern.log as follows (for the broken case):
Feb 28 22:31:38 localhost kernel: ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.0.0
Feb 28 22:31:38 localhost kernel: ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation

Feb 28 22:31:48 localhost kernel: ipw2200: ipw-2.2-boot.fw load failed: Reason -2
Feb 28 22:31:48 localhost kernel: ipw2200: Unable to load firmware: 0xFFFFFFFE
Feb 28 22:31:48 localhost kernel: ipw2200: failed to register network device
Feb 28 22:31:48 localhost kernel: ipw2200: probe of 0000:02:06.0 failed with error -5
Of course, it may be that the bug is in ipw2200 or somewhere else.
I've built ipw2200 from the debian package ipw2200-source, version
1.0.0-1, running on standard Debian kernel image 2.6.8-1-686.
For reference, when it works (using the previous hotplug), I get this
logged:
Feb 28 22:36:23 localhost kernel: ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.0.0
Feb 28 22:36:23 localhost kernel: ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation
Feb 28 22:36:23 localhost kernel: ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:02:06.0[A] -> GSI 10 (level, low) -> IRQ 10
Feb 28 22:36:23 localhost kernel: ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection
Also, I certainly have the right firmware files is the right place:
$ pwd
/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware
$ ls
ipw-2.2-boot.fw ipw-2.2-bss_ucode.fw ipw-2.2-ibss_ucode.fw
ipw-2.2-bss.fw ipw-2.2-ibss.fw
Ah, is it possible that having these as symlinks could cause a problem
for hotplug? As you can see below, I have them all symlink'd into /usr/local.
(The links are not dangling - see wc output.)
$ ls -l

Any ideas?

closes: Bug#297481, Bug#299154
/sbin/hotplug may have potential problem in hotplug event multiplexing,
but /sbin/udevsend has grave problem in firmware loading in old kernel,
so I add workaround fix to this.
Recommends upgrade kernel 2.6.10 or later.
