Requires non-free daemon and firmware.

Should work out of the box with kernels released after march or december 2007 maybe (2.6.20—*) on Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn.

Working PCI wireless cards on PLD Linux 2.99 i386 (kernel: 2.6.21.7-1) by emes (5):

NO OPEN-SOURCE SOULTION AVAILABLE!
However, it works without any problems. Needs closed-source binary daemon ipw3945d and firmware available at Intel site (should be also provided as package in most of distributions).

Needs some special modules for the iwl3945.

You have to install the ucode in /lib/firmware from http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/iwlwifi/downloads/iwlwifi-3945-ucode-2.14.1.5.tgz
if you use the MDV free edition.
