The errors I get are: Any particular reason you're doing this? Do you just want to play with it, or do you just want to get iwl3945 working on RHEL5? I ask because RHEL5 includes ipw3945 which should work already for you if you just want to get the card to work. In any case, since RHEL5 runs 2.6.18, you'll need to work a bit to backport mac80211 and iwl3945. There were some heavy crypto changes around 2.6.18/2.6.19, and there may be quite a lot of lower level network stack churn that you'll have to deal with.
