I have an acer 5920g with wireless card PRO/Wireless 3945ABG. It uses
the module ipw3945. After upgradind to openSuSE 11.0, it stopped
working. I ported to openSuSE 11.0 the drivers from openSuSE 10.3 and
the card stared working again. I made some rpms, that are available
from my website
http://teodori.org/repository/utilities/opensuse11.0/current/64bit.html.
They are my system specific so I don't know if they can help you.
