Have you tried the compat-wireless packages? They update to the latest
wireless code and install the drivers in the updates sub-directory of
/lib/modules so that they are loaded in preference to the drivers from
the kernel package installed.
FWIW, the latest Fedora 8 kernel with 1.2.26 and much updated iwlwifi,
iwl3945 and mac80211 code is working very well for me when kernels from
a few weeks ago were not. Compat-wireless should get fairly close to
this if you can get it to build.
