I've been having problems with the iwlagn module.  I'm actually using
Hardy 8.04.1, and I presume an update that was committed to Intrepid has
been sent to Hardy as well.  The LiveCD had no problems, and my disk
install of Hardy had worked flawlessly for a long time.  It is only
recently that this has occurred, and it seems related to this thread:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=962070

There is a workaround that was suggested for Intrepid that the users in
that thread were unable to use successfully due to the fact that the
iwl4965 module was removed from Intrepid in favor of iwlagn.  Being on
Hardy, I still have the iwl4965 module, so issuing the command to unload
iwlagn and iwl4965 then re-load iwl4965 has so far resolved my issues:

sudo modprobe -r iwlagn iwl4965 ; sudo modprobe iwl4965

Without the proper module, this command does not function properly.  If
Intrepid (and presumably Jaunty) were to include iwl4965, then this
workaround could be applied.
