I can't seem to get driverloader to work in mandrake 9.2 for my 
Intel pro wireless 2100.  I can do iwconfig and set and essid to 
mine and I can even scan with iwlist and I can see the AP.  I 
tried bringing up the eth1 interface with ifconfig and it will not 
obtain and ipaddress. The driverloader also does not show up in 
drakeconnect for some reason.  I can see my broadcom driver in the 
drakeconnect but not driverloader.  I tried reloading the modules 
and even reinstalling driverloader.  dmesg confirms the card is 
working.  here is ip addr:

1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue

       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

Any help would be great.  Thanks.
