Comment 56 for bug 263059

I have a similar issue but in my case iwl3945 _always_ crashes on load. Please, look at the description of bug #275227 (marked as a duplicated of this one). Do you get the same error message in your dmesg output? I am curious is this really the same or just related problem. I have also reported it at kernel.org bugzilla. It seems that the path is already prepared - http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11746 but I don't know when it will be incorporated into Intrepid kernel.
