Normally, you wouldn't get a wlan0 device, but a 'normal' ethX device.
Okay.

Also, the network I'm using requires WEP encryption.
Any ideas how I might debug this?


Try the ipw2100 list, I'm sure they can at least tell you about 'error
-16'.
'fraid I've tried there - no luck. I've also tried the ndiswrapper too - with no luck. I think I'm going to have to think drastic (e.g. changing distribution, etc) :-(

But thanks for your answer all the same.

Seems that there's a bug in 2.6.8 kernel. I need to put acpi=noirq onto my kernel boot line to fix it. So I've got wifi working, and got sound for free with it too!

See http://www.debianforums.com/ftopic3087.html for more info.
