Hi: I have a new laptop (Dell 1710) on which I installed testing (lenny) using the netinstall cd on 11th July. The kernel is 2.6.21-2-686(i686). Since the wireless would not work, I downloaded the ipw3945 module from testing and installed it. The card is detected but fails to load the module. (The ether network card was plugged in simltaneously; the latter worked; the wirelessdoes not work with or without the ethernet plugged in).I get, from dmesg:ipw3945.ucode load failed: Reason -2
you are probably missing the package "firmware-ipw3945" if it fails to load the microcode. check if ipw3945.ucode is installed in /lib/firmware
additionally you need the regulatory daemon package named "ipw3945d" to have your wifi work.
greets, frank.
Could not read microcode: -2 PCI interrupt for device 0000:0C:00.0 disabled Probe of 0000:0C:00.0 failed with error -2 I have seen a similar message on google but there was no resolution.
