Yes, I have. I just did another CVSup, and when I recompiled -kmod it did
indeed put a bunch of .ko files in /build/modules, but a) I still get a
whole bunch of Can't load firmware complaints, and b) it doesn't work. It
goes through the DISCOVER process, but doesn't get any offers it recognizes.
I've tried this both with an open DHCP and also with my parameters wired in.

Hardware notes: Dell 6100 Inspiron with 2200G iwi. I have heard from another
gent who has a 2200G pci card and is having the same problem with STABLE.

This all was working two weeks ago.
