Lewis,

Have you tried using the Intel 2200bg with any flavor of Linux?  Here when I tried it with Xandros on my T42p, Linux showed several APs but wouldn't connect to any (including my own).  Damn thing only works with windoze, which makes me wonder if windoze has adjusted something that screws everything else up.  It did work great with eCS 1.2R for several weeks until I booted to windoze.

I have not had an opportunity to try the 2200bg with Linux, Mark. I did find that with a BIOS upgrade to the T43, the Intel 2915 would not work in eCS (though it did in Windows). have you tried jogging your system BIOS at all?

I did, and there was no difference, alas.

Anyway, it seems the 2200bg included in some Thinkpads is different from the one Mark, Ed and I bought separately and had installed afterwards in our TP.

So mayby it's a driver problem after all. But as IBM has ditched OS/2 as well as it's Thinkpad, how on earth are we going to sort that out?
