------- Comment #2 From Zhu Yi 2007-12-23 16:52:39 -------

We will have iwlwifi driver in 2.6.24 kernel. So ipw3945 is not necessary to
work with 2.6.24.

------- Comment #3 From Jeff Zheng 2008-12-08 22:07:49 -------

ipw3945 as a driver has been replaced by iwl3945 in official kernel for a long
time. We suggest to use iwl3945 driver instead of the obsolete ipw3945 driver.
If you have bug, please report it with product=iwlwifi and platform="Intel(R)
Wifi Link 3945". Thanks so much!
