If you want the driver with TX aggregation support then you need to use
the iwl5000 branch
( http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=iwl5000 )

The branch is based on kernel 2.6.26. If you do not want to give up your
current kernel you can take a look how compat-wireless works ... but it
is actually intended to take the most recent wireless-testing to work
with your current kernel, not an older kernel in itself as what can be
found in the iwl5000 branch.

I think the easiest will be to use the iwl5000 branch on its own.
