FYI, I tried out the 3145 kernel and the iwl3945 driver still oopsed as soon as NetworkManager started and left me with a booted machine without keyboard input or networking. Here's the oops; I think this is mostly unchanged from what I reported before on fedora-kernel but perhaps it will be useful nonetheless. May 10 13:20:38 localhost NetworkManager: <info> starting...
