Wireless LED doesn't work (by default) in "Dapper" on HP NC6000 using ipw2200 driver

[Christopher Meyer]

Hi guys,

I've just setup dual-boot between Dapper and XP, installing Dapper from the
"Deskop" CD on my HP NC6000 laptop.
I have to say I was extremely impressed with the installation, having
everything work out of the box, including
wireless, using the ipw2200 driver. The only thing missing was the LED light
for my wireless card not lighting up
when  I activated the wireless interface. After searching a few forums
someone suggested adding the option:

options ipw2200 led = 1

to "/etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200" .

This file doesn't exist on my system, however I did make the necessary entry
in "/etc/modprobe.d/options"
and after a reboot, the wireless LED lit up as soon as the interface came
up. This makes me happy :) .
Question is, do I accept this to be a "cosmetic" bug which I can live with,
or should I file it as a bug on Launchpad?
I haven't seen this logged as an issue on Launchpad by anyone else yet.

Thanks in advance.

Christopher
