I had this same problem on a 3945 on a Dell Inspiron 1420 notebook. The fix suggested above worked, I added a line saying: blacklist ipw3945 to the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file
and I added another line saying: iwl3945 to /etc/modules I would consistantly reproduce the crash within 10 minutes by attempting to copy several gigs of data over the network. With the new module the data transfer works fine. -- ipw3945: Error sending LEDS_CMD.
