Bug Description
SRU Justification:
Impact: The iwl3945 driver does not claim to be capable of scans (in the LUM code)
Fix: Take the fix used in LBM and Intrepid to LUM which adds the scan_capa framework.
Testcase: Wireless card is not able to connect to hidden SSIDs without this.

After the latest network-manager update (early march 2008) using hardy, I cannot associate with any wireless networks.
network-manager version: 0.6.6-0ubuntu1.
Attatched is the logging to daemon.log by network-manager.
This happens on two laptops, one using Ubuntu hardy with ipw2200 wireless driver, and one using Kubuntu Hardy with iwl3945.
Logging attached is from the Kubuntu laptop.
Using the Ubuntu Hardy computer (running gnome), I sometimes can associate if I use the kill switch or disable and enable wireless. Seems like this all depends on timing though, I can only associate in something like one out of 10 tries.
Other computers have no problems associating with the AP.

using this bug to track the iwl3945 issue. maybe subscribe to bug 199679 which tracks the ipw2200 regression.
