** Description changed:

  Problem: Intrepid fails to boot on a variety of laptops using the
  iwl3945 driver.
  
- Affected versions: 2.6.27-2 through 2.6.27-7.  By at least one report,
- 2.6.27-1 does not exhibit the problem.
+ Affected versions: all 2.6.27 Intrepid kernels.  2.6.26 is reported not
+ to be affected.
  
  Symptoms: A hard freeze partway through the boot process, near the time
  when the iwl3945 module is loaded.  No kernel panic is printed, and the
  system is unresponsive even to Sysrq.
  
  Frequency: This happens frequently, but not every time (20%-80% failure
  rate).
  
  Workarounds: Blacklisting iwl3945 reliably avoids the problem.  Delaying
  the loading of iwl3945 for 5 seconds also reliably avoids the problem.
