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?)

cheers,
