Hi,

I just downloaded the latest kernel drivers, daemon and microcode for
my Intel Wireless card. everything built correctly, the microcode is
placed in /lib/firmware and when running /etc/init.d/ipw3945d-start I
get the following dmesg

Extra info:

When doing a /sbin/ipw3945d --kill && /sbin/ipw3945d I get:
