Hi,
Decided to test out .30-rc1, but I've run into some bugs.
My intel 3945 wireless card doesn't work. Bellow is the relevant
portions of dmesg
The full dmesg and config can be found at:

I assume this is a regression? 2.6.29 was OK?
See the discussion in the thread containing
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123922531327539&w=2. This one also contains
the fix that was accepted by Rusty Russell.
i have the same problem. 2.6.29 was fine, 2.6.30-rc1 doesn't work. i
tried applying the above mentioned patch but it didn't make any
difference. at any rate, i have iwl3945 compiled in the kernel and not
as a module and i don't use wep. this is the relevant part from syslog:

looking through the logs i also noticed this:

Obviously your problem is different. The one I reported was due to problems
loading modules.
If you have the Linux-2.6 git tree, please do a bisection. In any case, you
should post this as a separate regression. Your problem will get lost in this
thread.

The patch did not work, or at least I don't have wireless auto-loaded.
The module iwl3945 is loaded once I login,
but the network monitor app shows no wireless support. What does work is:
modprob -r iwl3945
modprob -i iwl3945
I have another problem where modules aren't loading correctly and I
can't load my flash disk.
The load/unload sequence works in that case too. Could this all be
related to that "async" thing, that was added
that I've seen be the cause of other bugs that are being reported?
