Debian's 2.6.23 kernel has the iwlwifi driver in it already. You can: 

        aptitude install firmware-iwlwifi
        modprobe iwl3945

and then configure your wireless as before. The iwlwifi driver replaces the 
ipw3945 driver and doesn't need the binary regulatory daemon. (ipw3945d).

I'm not sure if you are able to still use ipw3945 with Debian's 2.6.23 kernel 
but I imagine that it is possible. You would need to compile it yourself 
using module-assistant. Something like this *should* work:

        aptitude install module-assistant
        m-a prepare
        m-a a-i ipw3945

Good luck!
Stuart
