[ubuntu] Another ipw2200BG problem

[brucem9999]

I have a Dell Inspirion I6000 running XP (for the moment! Until I get this networking problem solved!)

I'm trying to configure 9.10 running the LiveCD until I get this working. I've been using the Ubuntu Hacks book, which is somewhat disjointed, but has a lot of good info. Anyway....

I tried all of the solutions offered for this person (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...ghlight=2200bg), and here are the print outs:

To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
See "man sudo_root" for details.

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo modprobe iwp2200
FATAL: Module iwp2200 not found.
