but at the end, when i try to run the module

# modprobe iwl4965
I get a segmentation fault

and when rebooting the system it hangs up, so I had to blacklist ipw4965.

 ipw3945-ucode-1.14.2
 iwlwifi-4965-ucode-4.44.15.tgz
 iwlwifi-0.0.38

 #uname -r

 #gcc --version
 gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)
# modprobe iwl4965
 Fallo de segmentación

It loads the module with fails, but
#iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
