Mr Henderson,

I think the problem I'm having is I had to copy the ipw2200.19.gz file 
to a flash drive.  Where and how do I copy/move the driver file to mepis 
from the flash drive.  Please remember that mepis is running off a cd.  
Once I get the ipw2200 driver file to the correct location in mepis the 
compiling should work.
Thanks.
