Once you have the firmware image, you 25 will need to place it in /lib/firmware. 26 27 You will also very likely need the Wireless Tools in order to 28 configure your card: 29 30 <http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Tools.html>. 31 32 It is recommended that you compile this driver as a module (M) 33 rather than built-in (Y). This driver requires firmware at device 34 initialization time, and when built-in this typically happens 35 before the filesystem is accessible (hence firmware will be 36 unavailable and initialization will fail). If you do choose to build 37 this driver into your kernel image, you can avoid this problem by 38 including the firmware and a firmware loader in an initramfs. 39 40config IPW2100_MONITOR 41 bool "Enable promiscuous mode" 42 depends on IPW2100 43 ---help--- 44 Enables promiscuous/monitor mode support for the ipw2100 driver. 45 With this feature compiled into the driver, you can switch to 46 promiscuous mode via the Wireless Tool's Monitor mode.
