Subject: firmware for intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG

Hi, it seems it is impossible to download firmwarefor intel
PRO/Wireless 2200BG anymore.
thought apparently I still need it to use my WIFI card on backtrack 5.
Is there an other way to have these?

thx

Maybe someone from intel would like to get these firmwares into the
linux-firmware tree?

Thanks,

It looks like intel closed the bughost.org domain.
Those are unreachable:
http://bughost.org/firmware/ipw2100-fw-1.3.tgz
http://bughost.org/firmware/ipw2200-fw-3.1.tgz
