Title:
  8086:4222 [Dell Latitude D830] iwl3945 0000:0c:00.0: Radio disabled by
  HW RF Kill switch

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After one of the latest updates, the dmesg log shows that the above
  error message is generated in rapid succession, regardless if the
  switch is activated or not. rmmod iwl3945 or shutting Wi-Fi off via
  menu stops the error messages.

  The WLAN device is also not functional (as expected).
