[Bug 185470] Re: iwl3945 not functioning : microcode error

[Zorael]

I posted a bug earlier which, I see now, seems to be more or less a
duplicate of this one.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-backports-
modules-2.6.24/+bug/226134

tl;dr version:
- Interface does not work at all in any to-date Hardy kernels without creating /etc/modprobe.d/iwl3945 with a line with "disable_hw_scan=0"
- Grabbing linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-16-generic makes it spam Microcode SW errors in dmesg.
- Upgrading to 2.6.24-17 makes it spam Microcode SW errors in dmesg.
- The interface *does* work with the modules provided with the 2.6.24-16 kernel and the file described above, but upgrading in any way breaks it. This includes the backported -17 kernel as well as all the backported module packages currently available to both -16 and -17.

See the link to my bug for logs.
