Re: ipw2200 disabled?

dmesg only shows the following:

ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, git-1.0.8
ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2005 Intel Corporation
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:04:02.0[A] -> Link [LNKF] -> GSI 11 (level,
   low) -> IRQ 11
ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection

I tried echoing 0-3 to the /sys/class/net/*/device/rf_kill, with no results.
