Parameters:
.22: vga=791 nohz=off highres=off
.20: vga=791
Dell M65 laptop with no devices connected.
Using 2.6.20-1.2962, my hard drive shows up as sda with buffered disk
read of ~49MB/sec. Under the .22 kernel it shows up as hda and the
buffered read is < 2MB/sec. (This cause the boot to be very slow.)
I installed the iwl3945 ucode and the module gets inserted.
NetworkManager doesn't see the wireless. I didn't try very hard to
get this working.
I get the following error on boot and the HAL demon complains at boot.
WARNING: at drivers/usb/core/driver.c:1192 usb_autopm_do_device() (Not tainted)

=======================
Why do you think that USB warning is related to the wireless trouble you have?
I see that same warning every time I start up, but the Dell D820's
ipw3945 still works fine. I am using the ipw3945 driver now, not the
iwl3945 in the kernel.
I think you should look for the solution to your wireless trouble in
the wiereless configuration, not in that kernel message. I do NOT use
NetworkManager, it works only intermittently anyway when I try it.
But if you turn off NetworkManager and network, and use
system-config-network to set up one wireless network, then you can
easily see how those things are specified by the scripts in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and you can use /sbin/ifup XXX and
/sbin/ifdown XXX to turn them on and off.
