 I didn't file this bug and I do not have an ipw3945, I just wanted to
add to the bug that I have bcm43xx and get the same problem, so it might
not be specific to the ipw3945 driver.

If anyone has a good solution to try then of course I will install Edgy
again as it goes quite quickly with having /home on a separate
partition, but I have one laptop used by my spouse and myself and cannot
afford to have a broken edgy installation for several weeks waiting for
suggestions to pop-up.
