Re: Gutsy unstable

Create a file called /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ipw3945 and add:
blacklist ipw3945

Add to /etc/modules: iwl3945

Reboot. After the system restarts, verify that the module iwl3945 (and not
ipw3945) is loaded:

$ lsmod | egrep 'Module|iwl|ipw'

You should see an output that looks like:
Module                  Size  Used by
iwl3945                88168  0
iwlwifi_mac80211      175112  1 iwl3945
cfg80211                7304  1 iwlwifi_mac80211

As seen, only the iwl3945 module is loaded. Hope this helps! It was easy
enough the even I could do it! Of course it was done on a laptop which
had "Gutsy" factory installed.

Thank you for posting this. What I'm not clear on is whether this also
solved the network manager issue. I'm currently using ifupdown as a
workaround for the network manager's failure to reconnect.
