I've been following this thread because I see the similar kernel messages as in the original post. Trying to connect to a WPA Personal wireless network in roaming mode, the kernel log shows the following

These repeat until the attempt to connect times out and the password dialog appears.
I tried to configure the network, i.e. not using roaming, with no difference.

I am running Hardy 8.04, kernel 2.6.24-23-generic, have the 0.6.6 version of Network Manager and if I read the previous posts correctly, the latest Intel driver should be in my kernel.
I am at a loss, especially since I have no problems with my wireless router at home at which I run WPA2

Unfortunately I didn't run dmesg, so I don't know whether I get the TX power messages as well.

I am running a Dell Latitude 420, The wireless is a PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection with the iwl3945 driver.
