wlan in etch

Hi,

I am running etch in a Sony Vaio with an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200bg
Network Connection wireless network card. I am running a 2.6.18 kernel,
so, afaik, the ipw2200 module is already in the kernel. I've installed
Wireless Extensions and Tools. I would appreciate very much if someone
could point me to a how-to in order to put the wireless card to work. I
looked at the archives, and googled a bit too, but the information I've
found is out of data or fragmented.

Thanks in advance for the help

Marcelo
