sorry for the delay, i just dont had the time to test this. So, iwl seems 
not to work with my comp, it seems to get no connection to my AP. 

Tried the old ipw-stuff, still with kernel 2.6.22.5-10, didnt work 
either. Updated to kernel 2.6.22.5-16, which has also new 
ipw-kernel-modules, but still didnt work. At some point i recongnized 
that the ipw3945d wasnt installed anymore, so my question is: Why? If it 
was deinstalled when i first updated to kernel 2.6.22.5-12, which 
automatically installed also the iwl-kernel-modules as dependencies, why 
then the old ipw-kernel-module would not be deinstalled too? And later, 
when i tried to reinstall the ipw-kernel-module, why this dont have the 
daemon as a dependecy? 

i think it must not be possible to install both kernel-modules at the 
same time, and when the ipw-kernel-module will be installed, the daemon 
should be selected automatically.

regards, Jens
