We've dropped ipw3945 in favor of the in-kernel iwl3945 driver. Doesn't
require the binary-only daemon.

It is a good thing to use a full open source driver, but unfortunately the
iwl3945 driver is not as mature as ipw3945. iwl3945 does not work with my
university network which uses 802.11 authentication. I am not the only
person that still prefers the ipw3945 driver. Thanks for the patch, it
allowed me to compile ipw3945 on Ubuntu Hardy.

Yako - Intel communicated to me last week that they are going to release
another version of the iwlwifi driver sometime in June or July, probably
not in time for 8.04.1. I specifically asked about better support for
the i3945. Perhaps I'll receive an answer this week.
