Hi, 
me again with a problem concerning the fiberline FL-WL240U.

At my gentoo system with iwconfig

	iwconfig  Version 25
	          Compatible with Wireless Extension v15 or earlier,
	          Currently compiled with Wireless Extension v13.

from wireless tools

	*  net-wireless/wireless-tools
	      Latest version available: 27_pre3
	      Latest version installed: 25
	      Size of downloaded files: 118 kB
	      Homepage:    http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Tools.html
	      Description: A collection of tools to configure wireless lan cards.

modules work fine, and iwconfig also.

But at my freshly installed sarge debian system iwconfig

	iwconfig  Version 26
	          Compatible with Wirless Extension v16 or earlier,
		  Currently compiled with Wireless Extension v16.

does not recognize the proper installed wlan0 as a wireless device, so
it refuses to set any settings.

Do I have to downgrade the wireless-tools?

Any questions leading to the answer are appreciated.
