[hardy] cannot enable ipw3945 driver (wireless)

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. What steps did you take to enable the driver? Thanks in advance.

Thx for reply. I enable it in restricted driver manager and restart and becouse it didnt show i checked restricted drivers again and it says that driver is not in use.
I tried enable it in GUI of network-mannager but it didnt work.

Maybe there is some terminal command that im missing.

The ipw3945 driver is no longer used in Hardy and it shouldn't show up as a restricted driver. The new driver for Intel wireless is iwl3945 and that should be used automatically. Could you please add the output of the commands 'lsmod' and 'iwconfig' as attachments to your bug report? Thanks in advance.

I find solution.

I download http://intellinuxwireless.org/iwlwifi/downloads/iwlwifi-3945-ucode-2.14.1.5.tgz
and replace the files in /lib/firmware with files from this rar

This manipulation does not work. My WiFi does not start

Hi All,

Just a few things to ask:

Jaka, with the most recent Hardy Alpha release (http://www.ubuntu.com/testing) do you still need to use your workaround? You should be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know your results.

Frederic, care to open a new bug report as it seems you may be experiencing a slightly different issue. In your new bug report please be sure to include the following per the kernel team's bug policy. Also, please be sure to attach each file as a separate attachment.

* cat /proc/version_signature > version.log
* dmesg > dmesg.log
* sudo lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log

For more information regarding the kernel team bug policy, please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies . Thanks.

Sorry for the delay. It works.
