Bug#548934: linux-image-2.6.30-1-686: ipw2200 wireless LED activated by default



Package: linux-image-2.6.30-1-686
Version: 2.6.30-6
Severity: wishlist

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Hello,

it would be nice if the "led=1" option for the ipw2200 wireless module
were activated by default. I tested it on my Acer Travelmate 3200 series
and it works. My network controller - revealed with "lspci | grep -i
wireless" - is: 
Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG [Calexico2] Network Connection
(rev 05)

a simple solution (as suggested in http://wiki.debian.org/ipw2200)
is to create a file in /etc/modprobe.d

echo options ipw2200 led=1 >> /etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200.conf && modprobe
-r ipw2200 && modprobe ipw2200
