Subject: [IPW3945] Can't load microcode

Hi,

I just downloaded the latest kernel drivers, daemon and microcode for
my Intel Wireless card. everything built correctly, the microcode is
placed in /lib/firmware and when running /etc/init.d/ipw3945d-start I
get the following dmesg

ieee80211_crypt: registered algorithm 'NULL'

ipw3945: Could not read microcode: -2
ipw3945: probe of 0000:05:00.0 failed with error -2


What am I doing wrong?
