what wrapper? ndiswrapper? you shouldn't have to use that anyway on
intel ipw-2200 as Intel is releasing all the necessary code to Linux. I
believe that Dennis gave you info on the project. Chances are that there
is a Mandriva way to do it but I wouldn't know because I don't know
Mandriva. Fedora, you would just install ipw-2200-firmware package.
