All right, I've tested 2.6.32.12-lucid and 2.6.33.3-lucid (plus 2.6.34-999, April 25th edition, which I tried two days ago) hoping that upstream may have fixed this. Unfortunately, the bug is still present and, in addition, I could not extract any kernel logs because (see attachment). All in all this adds up to three very recent mainline versions having the same issue as far as iwl3945 is concerned.

With 2.6.32.12-lucid, I also saw what may have been an isolated occurrence, but the kill switch didn't work either, meaning that disabling and re-enabling the wireless adapter had no effect and I had to reboot in order to have my wireless connection working again.

Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. I remember finding something very similar two days ago on the Intel Bugzilla for iwl3945 but somehow (ahem) I forgot to save the reference and I can't seem to be able to locate it again.
