Mm. That might require you installing a new kernel, since (AFAIK) the
Intel drivers target the new wireless infrastructure that is only
present in 2.6.22 and up. I might be mistaken about the exact kernel
revision.

I have a similarly-configured laptop on order, so I'll be able to
offer more specific advice later on. The most painless solution would
seem to be installing a kernel (and the iwl4965 driver, if it's a
separate RPM) from 10.3beta1.
