Hi,

On my older X41 I had to fix the LED usage in /etc/modprobe.conf (CentOS 5)

[root@ibm2 BAT0]# modinfo ipw2200|grep led
parm:           led:enable led control on some systems (default 0 off)

On X61 with iwl3945 LED works out of the box and there's no such module 
parameter.

[root@ibm2 BAT0]# modinfo iwl3945|head -n 5
filename:       /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.26.1.el5/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl3945.ko
