Intel 3945ABG Wirelss Issue on hardy

[Ankur Jain]

I found out the problem...actually it was the avahi-daemon that was creating
problem. I could see the available wireless networks...but couldnt connect
to them. Once I switched off the service and killed the existing avahi
processes, I could connect to wireless network without any issue.
