[ltp] r40 with wlan

[Joel Ebel]

Have you read my message about Driver for IBM Dual Band mini-pci 
adapter?  There is no way I can find to turn on the transmitter like I 
can in Windows.  Without it being on, you won't get a list of access 
points.  I have an LED on my display indicating if it is on or not, and 
I've never gotten it on in Linux.
