Ipw2200 problem in Fedora 8

[Eason Mai]

Hi,

When I verify ipw2200-firmware, it shows me the following:

# rpm -V ipw2200-firmware-3.0-9

.......T   /lib/firmware/ipw2200-bss.fw
.......T   /lib/firmware/ipw2200-ibss.fw
.......T   /lib/firmware/ipw2200-sniffer.fw

Any problem with ipw2200-firmware? And idea? Thanks.

Eason
