I have a similar issue. When I upgraded from the Gutsy kernel to the Hardy 
kernel, the first time, my wifi wasn't working. I tried a month later, when 
2.6.24-5 was released and it worked perfectly (still use it). To get a normal 
name for my wifi interface, I removed the entry from 
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and rebooted. The module I use is 
1.1.17. When I update to a newer version, the module is changed to 1.2.0 (since 
I don't know what modules are in the linux-ubuntu-modules package, I install 
that too, but perhaps I don't need it for my hardware). With module 1.2.0, my 
wifi doesn't work anymore. It associates to the AP up to e/bssid, but I get no 
signal, thus no network.
lspci | grep 3945:
04:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network 
Connection (rev 02)

So, either update the iwl3945 module to a newer version in the 
linux-ubuntu-modules, or try to fix this. I might also be useful to list all 
the modules/drivers that are in the packages so people know what to install or 
not. I have a Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Pi 1536.
Also, why include the 1.1.17 module with the kernel package and 'overwrite' it 
with the 1.2.0 from the modules package?
