1) Insert Ubuntu Jaunty Alpha 3 LiveCD
2) Open Applications => Accesories => Terminal
3) sudo bash
4) rmmod iwl3945
5) modprobe iwl3945
6) Vola, it works like charm
I saw this issue also in Intrepid.

Also forgot to mention that if I didn't rmmod and modprobe commands, then Ubuntu would claim that there is no Wireless Extentions on wlan0 and I couldn't activate anything or scan anything trough WiFi card.
