Hello all,

IM attempting to get my wireless intel pro 2200 card workign on my Dell
Inspiron laptop.

I see the following in my dmesg


ieee80211_crypt: registered algorithm 'NULL'
ieee80211: 802.11 data/management/control stack, 1.0.3
ieee80211: Copyright (C) 2004-2005 Intel Corporation
<jketreno at linux.intel.com>
ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.0.6
ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation


Im thinking i might have it realy close to working. From what i
understand I now need to compile the kernel with support for ARC4 cipher
algorithm. 

If someone could point me at a decent howto or a link that would aloow
me to learn more about recompiling the kernal that would be great. I
have recompiled many kernels for free bsd but never for fedora. 


Thanks in advance for any assistance. 

Shawn
