I found a workaround for the HP bios / Intel 2200 mini PCI problem here:

More details in this forum thread:

I haven't tested it, but I'm planning to try it with my HP ze5500.

&gt; I'm assuming it might be that this laptop does not have an antenna for a
&gt; mini-pci card, thus they don't want you calling support when such a card
&gt; does not work.  I was expecting that card would work, just that my range
&gt; would be (quite) limited.
&gt; 
&gt; Insights would be appreciated.
&gt; 
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; The drivers are open source and well-maintained, and they've got monitor
&gt; &gt; mode enabled in the firmware now (so kismet and friends work ;-). The
&gt; &gt; cards are quite cheap too - I think I paid $20 each for an order of 2200s.
&gt; 
&gt; Pointers for where one might purchase such a card?
