Re: [Ipw2100-devel] Re: [ipw2200]Confirmation of power management problem

It's been resolved by Len, his newest ACPI updates in 2.6.9-rc4+ fixed that 
problem. ACPI was not shutting the device down, the only buzzing heard now is 
when the laptop is in S3 mode, but I believe this to be normal since it needs 
to resume w/o reloading the firmware. This does work upon resumption of 
system.

When I press power button, after the system has turned 'off', the CPU fan 
shuts down and so does the ipw2200bg card.

Hardware is all good :)
