Re: AMD64 and IPW2100 (in Notebook ACER ASPIRE 1520WLMI)
Hi!
With 32bits Linux it's possible to make the ipn2200 work with ndiswrapper.
Probably it will work with ndiswrapper on linux 64 bits.
If you can make it work, please let me know, as I have an 1522wlmi and I'm thinking on changing my OS to AMD64.
Good luck.

Hello all,
I got a new wlan-card, and exchanged it in my notebook as ipn2200 is not
supported by linux.
Now I have an Intel ipw2100 built in.
Did someone get the wlan card "ipw2100 B3" running under debian-amd64 ?
Installation withe the original debian sources worked fine, card is beeing
recognized and the driver is loaded well by the kernel. But, the firmware
will not load properly. I tried all versions of the firmware with no success.
The required one is version 1.3.
Thus, the card does not work, and I suppose, it is because the firmware will
not run on 64bit systems.
When I try to unload the module , and reload agein (by using modconf or
modprobe), the loader hangs and I have to reboot. No chance, to kill the
loader-process.
Did somebody get it to run ? This card is built in in many other notebooks.
Best regards
Hans
