@Rechner, this bug report is about the slowness of WiFi in laptop that use 3945ABG. @delijati above write that the slowness might be because of power management. In lucid that I'm using right now, I had the power management turned off. I haven't had a time to install maverick yet. If the slowness of Wifi is because of the power management setting, then I want to tell you that setting it to off will not affect the battery runtime too big.

My Thinkpad R61 is using Intel VGA, not Radeon. The average power consumption is around 18 - 21 W (based on gnome-power-management power statistic history graph). So I have no comment about Radeon performance, beside it is out of this bug report scope.

So, anyone else that have installed Maverick and turned off Power Management setting in wlan0 device? Is the slow problems gone or it is still as slow as before?
