cat /sys/class/net/eth1/device/rf_kill (eth1 being the device associated
to ipw2200) returns 0, like with kernel 2.6.22.14. So there is no
problem with the rf_kill switch. However, with kernel 2.6.22.14 it works
and with kernel 2.6.23.9, it doesn't work. So there really seems to be a
problem with the ipw2200 driver and kernel 2.6.23.9 (and newer).

Do you have any idea on the problem ?
Thanks for your help,
