I dont know where 2.6.18-6 is--the update applet on
the panel told me there was an update, i ran it, it
said
that 2.6.18-6 was ready, i installed it, but now its
not there, i guess.

Its an Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG. From my dmesg in
the 2.6.18-4 kernel:
---
ipw3945: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945 Network Connection
driver for Linux, 1.1.2dmpr
ipw3945: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation
---
But i didnt get any message about this driver being
out of date.
Thank you again!
Jen
