Donc, sur avis général, j'ai placé les firmwares dans /lib/firmware
Puis, reboot,

puis

# dmesg | grep ipw2100

J'ai egalement essayé :
rmmod ipw2100
modprobe ipw2100

les messages envoyés sur la console sont identiques à ceux ci-dessus ,
avec en plus :
ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:02:02.0[A] -> link [LNKC] -> GSI 11 (level,
low) -> IRQ 11

et, en  prime, un freeze complet de la machine, avec obligation
d'enlever le secteur et la batterie pour rebooter ...
