Comment 12 for bug 187306

Just installing linux-image-2.6.27-* doesn't work. I installed

$ dpkg -l *2.6.27*
[...]
un linux-doc-2.6.27 <keine> (keine Beschreibung vorhanden)
ii linux-image-2.6.27-2-gen 2.6.27-2.3 Linux kernel image for version 2.6.27 on x86/x86_64
ii linux-restricted-modules 2.6.27-2.2 Non-free Linux kernel modules for version 2.6.27 on x86/x86_64
un linux-source-2.6.27 <keine> (keine Beschreibung vorhanden)

but the firmware can't be found

$ dmesg | grep ipw2200
