kcheck was working just fine but sadly I have to say that the results were not good :(.
I loaded mac80211 and iwl3945 and I couldn't even get my system to recognize the wireless-thingy, before in the standard kernel for Ubuntu 8.04.1 the system did recognize the wireless-thingy. The output from dmesg: [ 184.025780] iwl3945: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG/BG Network Connection driver for Linux, 1.2.26k [ 184.025787] iwl3945: Copyright(c) 2003-2008 Intel Corporation [ 184.025848] iwl3945 0000:0b:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 [ 184.025870] iwl3945 0000:0b:00.0: setting latency timer to 64 [ 184.025892] iwl3945: Detected Intel Wireless WiFi Link 3945ABG [ 184.031465] iwl3945: Error: saturation power is -1, less than minimum expected 40 [ 184.031472] iwl3945: Invalid power index [ 184.031476] iwl3945: initializing regulatory failed: -5 [ 184.042932] iwl3945 0000:0b:00.0: PCI INT A disabled [ 184.043663] iwl3945: probe of 0000:0b:00.0 failed with error -5 Perhaps there were some step that I missed?
