Title:
  iwl3945 cannot be enabled when disabled (via killswitch) during boot

Status in ipw3945:
  New
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am using an up-to-date Jaunty system on an IBM ThinkPad X60s.

  When I boot my notebook with wireless turned off (using the
  killswitch), the wireless cannot be enabled by just turning off the
  killswitch.

  The dmesg output below is from booting system with wireless turned off
  and then turned on once logged into GNOME:

  The problem can be worked around with "rmmod iwl3945 && modprobe
  iwl3945":

  This worked fine (ie. without the workaround) with Intrepid and
  earlier Ubuntu releases.
