Wifi on Thinkpad T43
« on: August 15, 2010, 03:28:36 PM »
Hi,

I just installed TC on my IBM ThinkPad T43. As far as I know it uses the Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG chip. I installed wireless_tools and firmware-iwlwifi but our wireless network still doesn't show up in wicd. Do I need anything else?
Im using Tiny Core 2.11.5.

The iwlwifi firmware is for the 3945-6000 wireless. Your card is the 2200 one, you can get firmware here:
