After booting and checking that the ipw3945 module is loaded -
lsmod|grep ipw gives
ipw3945               195240  1
ieee80211              34953  1 ipw3945


then run the reg daemon with
/sbin/ipw3945d --quiet

ps -eaf|grep ipw gives
root      1212    11  0 16:12 ?        00:00:00 [ipw3945/0]
root      1213    11  0 16:12 ?        00:00:00 [ipw3945/1]
root      1214    11  0 16:12 ?        00:00:00 [ipw3945/0]
root      1215    11  0 16:12 ?        00:00:00 [ipw3945/1]
root      3136     1  0 16:14 pts/2    00:00:00 /sbin/ipw3945d --quiet
root      3965  3087  0 16:21 pts/2    00:00:00 grep ipw


tail /var/log/messages gives:
Nov 14 16:14:56 samsung1 kernel: ipw3945: Detected geography ABG (13 802.11bg

iwconfig gives

          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:7   Missed beacon:0


So this is possibly looking like the driver did not compile to a working
version?  So there must be other patches I missed?
