Description of problem:
starting with rawhide 8rc3 on a hp 2510p i had the situation, that my iwl4965 never worked, yesterday with the kernelupgrade in rawhide 9 to 2.6.24-0.39.rc3.git1.fc9 for the first time my wireless worked (without wpa), but today, after the upgrade to 2.6.24-0.41.rc3.git1.fc9 the wireless does not work anymore, even when i boot the 39er. both modules (iwl4965 and 80211) load without errormessages, but the wlan0-device can not be brought up because the device "seems to be missing"). for me it seems, that the device is not handled by the module. strabge is, that it was for some hours with 39 and its broken again after installing 41 with 41 AND 39.

during those short hours the device worked, scanning worked, NetworkManager worked, managing the interface manually worked (what a surprise) and i got credible information from iwconfig.

somewhat surprising the alias-entry for wlan0 in /etc/modules.conf was gone after the upgrade to 41, but to reenter the alias did not solve the problem.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.24-0.41.rc3.git1.fc9  

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. reboots to rl 3 and 5
2. ifup wlan0 manually / NetworkManager try to connect / 
   system-config-network try to bring up wlan0 / ifconfig wlan0 up / 
   iwconfig wlan0 essid myessid ....  all was same result before yesterday and
   again today
3. manually modprobe mac80211 and iwl4965 what does not bring any errors, 
   but also no other effect (up to step 2)

Actual Results:
hardware is not found/handled by module

Expected Results:
module should find/handle hw
