Public bug reported:
First, this might be related to another package, one just can't submit
a report without giving a package.
I'm running Kubuntu 04.08 on an Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Xi 1554 Laptop,
2.6.24-21-generic #1 SMP.
: dmesg | grep iwl

Setting a channel, e.g.
: iwconfig wlan0 channel 2
:
works, so in principle the hardware is up, however, I can't set an encryption
key:
:wconfig wlan0 key s:secret

Encryption works fine with the older kernel using ipw3945 on 2.6.22-15.
iwl3945 worked never for me, and I tried all kernel during the updates of hardy.
