Comment 99 for bug 193970

I'm suffering this bug too, here are some information about my case:

Hardware :
Laptop, Sony Vaio VGN-FE770G

Software :
Ubuntu 8.10, installed from scracth, updated to now

Uname -a:
Linux halley 2.6.27-10-generic #1 SMP Fri Nov 21 12:00:22 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

Since the arrival of the iwl3945 driver my wireless never worked.
Randomly when I boot ( twice, in fact ) it worked well, but if I turned on the killswitch during this grace period, tha magic is gone.

None of the workarounds found in the web worked for me.

Attached you have the dmesg output from the two moments, the working wireless boot and the non-working.

I hope this cuold help you to help me, I don't want to get back to XP just to see my wireless working.

best regards

Trevor
