Hey guys, I'm also having trouble configuring my wireless connection with my HP 2133 mini.
My current kernal version is 2.6.16.54-0.2.5 I done some research and I saw a document that I thought was sure to work from
http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/17037.html. When I get to the step to "ifconfig", the output I get is:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1F:29:9E
F:10

does anyone have an idea why I didn't get an IP Address? Or where I can find steps that work. All the documents I read up on didn't work.
