Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02)
Works out-of-box including for WPA/EAP networks.
I have an ASUS laptop with this wireless card. I installed the dkms package for the ipw3945 module, and it somehow works, although with one minor dysfunction. On bootup, I get an error message about "interface eth1 not present so its activation will be delayed". That's because the dkms module installer only attempts to start *after* network device activation.
I wonder how I could possibly solve this annoying situation. Merely change the order of activation? If so, how do I do this? (I only know how to switch services on / off in different runlevels using chkconfig... but how do I change the *order* in which they are launched?)
You would be better off disabling all network adapters from coming up at boot time and using NetworkManager for establishing network connectivity.
