I've installed 10.1 and updated on a Dell D810. Everything seems to work well except the wireless.
The internal wireless card is an Intel Pro 2915abg which is recognized by yast.
I have tried deleting and re-adding the card via yast. No change.
The driver being loaded is IPW2200.
The firmware was downloaded and installed in /lib/firmware
I've tried both with networkmanager and the traditional ifup approach.
I've tried to set the eth0 internal NIC to start manually as seen in a topic but that made no difference.

The following messages appear in dmesg
ipw2200: module not supported by Novell, setting U taint flag.
ipw2200: Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.0.10
ipw2200: Copyright© 2003-2005 Intel Corporation
ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection
ipw2200: ipw-2.4-boot.fw load failed: Reason -2
ipw2200: Unable to load firmware: -2
ipw2200: failed to register network device
ipw2200: probe of 0000:03:03.0 failed with error -5

I have not tried ndiswrapper. Hoping this is something simple that I don't understand.

Any help appreciated.
