[driverloader] WEP does not work on my Intel 2200BG

[KBB0927 at cs.com]

Yes, I have the exact same experience. Intel Pro/Wireless 2200 BG only
works without WEP. I have an ASUS M3N notebook and the WEP _will_ work 
with a pcmcia Broadcom based cared:  Buffalo AirStation (WLI-CB-G54A) 
flawlessly. So I know WEP works under SuSE 9.0, just not with Intel
Pro/Wireless 2200BG

HTH,
