Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.20

WiFI was working fine with kernel 2.6.20-9 but stopped working with
versions 2.6.20-10 and 2.6.20-11.

A suspicious behavior is that at boot there are no apparent problems in
loading the driver. But if I type:

$ sudo modprobe -r ipw3945 
I get:
$ sh: /sbin/ipw3945d-2.6.20-11-generic: not found

and if I type again
$ sudo modprobe ipw3945
I get:
$ sh: /sbin/ipw3945d-2.6.20-11-generic: not found
$ FATAL: Error running install command for ipw3945

However, the dmesg command gives:

[ 1476.288000] ipw3945: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network
Connection

** Affects: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
