That was what I wanted to know. I just tried to make sure that the correct 
crypto module was used. Looking at the loaded modules it is clear what is going 
wrong. Just not exactly why. There is a separate ieee80211 stack in linux 
backports modules which normally should only be used for drivers there. But in 
your case it gets loaded and bound to the ipw2200 driver. As a work-around you 
can add the following line into /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:
blacklist lbm_cw_ieee80211
then rebuild your initrd with "sudo update-initramfs -u". After rebooting the 
wireless should work again. Or, if you do not need any driver from 
linux-backports-modules you could remove that package.
