Actually, the default ipw3945 won't ever change in Gusty. You can
blacklist ipw3945 which will allow iwl3945 to load. Make sure you have
at least 14.38 of linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22.
The default for Hardy is iwl3945.

part, be related to the use of software encryption in the current
driver. It seems
some info about switching drivers from another issue. Can't vouch for
it yet, about to try it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source

I second that motion. Switching from ipw3945 to iwl3945 solved some
pretty serious issues for me.

For a start, a good HOWTO for manual switching for these drivers would
be nice to have.
