System freeze when I modprobe ipw2100

Hello, 

I am configuring a computer with a Intel Pro Wireless 2100 card on a Suse9.3 with a Linux 2.6.13 kernel.
I checked thaht all options of my kernel are agree with the driver's INSTALL file.
Compilation and installation of the driver seems to work well.

I load the ieee80211 module.
Next I execute this command to load the ipw2100 driver :
modprobe ipw2100

The result is : 
ipw2100: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation
ipw2100: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Connection
ipw2100: eth1: Firmware 'ipw2100-1.3.fw' not available or load failed.
ipw2100: eth1: ipw2100_get_firmware failed: -2
ipw2100: eth1: Failed to power on the adapter.
ipw2100: eth1: Failed to start the firmware.
ipw2100Error calling regiser_netdev.
ipw2100: probe of 0000:01:01.0 failed with error -5

I see on the sourceforge page the solution of this problem.

I checked that my firmwares are at the good place. (/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware)
I increase the default timeout value to 100.

When I re-run : modprobe ipw2100, the system freeze.

I use the ipw2100-1.2.0 (stable release).

Did some one could help me ?
