I have a Dell Inspiron 6400, all standard out of the box.

The patch ipw3945.ko works for me, sofar that I don't have any trouble starting up any more.

But, there is this mysterious message in the log:

...ipw3945: thermal sensor seems not working...

I don't know what consequence this has. My laptop is not more then hand warm, in the tropics.
Will look for some 'thermal sensors' in Synaptics.
