the hardware switch is on. Otherwise it would not work with e.g. ubuntu
my 'dsmeg | grep ipw' gives
ipw3945: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945 Network Connection driver for Linux,
1.1.2dmpr
ipw3945: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation
ipw3945: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection
it does not differ from yours.
'ps uagx' | grep ipw gives
root 1892 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 16:23 0:00 [ipw3945/0]
root 1893 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 16:23 0:00 [ipw3945/1]
root 1894 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 16:23 0:00 [ipw3945/0]
root 1895 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 16:23 0:00 [ipw3945/1]
Does this mean the daemon is running? I don't find an ipw3945d in
/etc/init.d or somewhere else. Could this be the reason? If yes: in
which packega do I find ipw3945d to start?

hi,
probably a silly question, but is the device actually activated? i see
the same lsmod output even with the same wifi card deactivated by the
so called kill-switch (it's turned off by a hardware switch).
when the card is deactivated i am getting (dmesg | grep ipw)

ipw3945: Radio Frequency Kill Switch is On:
and also this message
Kill switch must be turned off for wireless networking to work.
is the regulatory daemon running (ipw3945d)? it should be written in
/var/log/boot
Loading kernel module ipw3945.
Starting ipw3945 regulatory daemon: ipw3945d.
best,
