Description Cameron Meadors 2009-01-06 20:35:26 UTC 
As per https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448932#c15, we should stop shipping iwl3945-kmod.  The developer indicates that the newer iwl3945 is the preferred driver.
Comment 1 Jon Masters 2009-03-13 19:32:26 UTC 
I don't think we can just drop it. We've already switched to prefer the built-in driver unless this one is installed. Someone might be reliant on it - this is no different than any other deprecated upstream software.
