Do you have the driver loaded (what does 'lsmod | grep ipw3945' show)? 
It is probably possible to get a message like that by running a daemon 
manually before loading the driver, but that's not a normal mode of 
operation. Try

modprobe -r ipw3945
modrpobe ipw3945

This will (re)insert the ipw3945 module and automatically starts the 
daemon.

Thanks,
