Hello,

I have  a centrino laptop (HP/Compaq X1000) with a built in intel 
PRO/Wireless 2100B adapter. I was very excited to hear that driveloader 
would work with my machine. I download and installed the downloader. I 
am having problems in that the driveloader says that

No device detected by driveloader

So, my question is, how do I get driveloader to recognize the the adapter?

Of course I am dead in the water then. I have a PCCard Linksys WPC11 on 
the machine since there are Linux driver for that card in case that 
makes a difference.

I am running 2.6.0-test8 Kernel on a Redhat machine. The compile works 
fine but the message I get in /var/log/messages is:
