This bug may be similar to the bug that was fixed for the 3945 and 4965.
See the patch "iwlwifi: fix ucode assertion for RX queue overrun" for
these drivers. We need somebody to port this change to the ipw2200.
Recently there has also been talk about these issues on the
ipw3945-devel mailing list.

Please do add any information you deem important to the bug report.
Please follow the same debug level as the previous comments to that bug.

Unfortunately we are focused on the iwlwifi driver right now - we hope
we get around to this in a reasonable time.
