Regarding the installation of the firmware, I downloaded the firmware, ./configure'd it, make'd it, make install'd it, and when I look at the folder /lib/firmware all I still have is the following:
/firmware/ ls ipw2100-1.3.fw ipw2200-LICENSE.txt ipw-2.2-ibss_ucode.fw ipw-2.3-sniffer.fw ipw-2.4-ibss_ucode.fw ipw2100-1.3-i.fw ipw2200-sniffer.fw ipw-2.3-boot.fw ipw-2.3-sniffer_ucode.fw ipw-2.4-sniffer.fw ipw2100-1.3-p.fw ipw-2.2-boot.fw ipw-2.3-bss.fw ipw-2.4-boot.fw ipw-2.4-sniffer_ucode.fw ipw2100-LICENSE.txt ipw-2.2-bss.fw ipw-2.3-bss_ucode.fw ipw-2.4-bss.fw iwlwifi-4965.ucode ipw2200-bss.fw ipw-2.2-bss_ucode.fw ipw-2.3-ibss.fw ipw-2.4-bss_ucode.fw LICENSE.iwlwifi-4965-ucode ipw2200-ibss.fw ipw-2.2-ibss.fw ipw-2.3-ibss_ucode.fw ipw-2.4-ibss.fw
g_pochini (at www.webalice.it/g_pochini/ead/) recommends installing hotplug and then compile firmware for the specific card. In my case: indigoio.
Any other options, or links I should look at ?
