Hey everyone, I'm having a issue since the last month hehe, my wireless keeps turning off whenever I login to gnome. When I turn on my computer, whe arriving to the GDM I see the wireless led on, then if I login to KDE, the wireless is on, but if I login to gnome the wireless turns off, I think it's my profile but I don't know where to look exactly for this.

Does any one know where can I look?

Thanks in Advance

Here is the output:

I forgot to say that the only way to turn it on is by issuing this command:

sudo modprobe -r iwl3945
sudo modprobe iwl3945


I have to switch Wlan on and off twice and enter that commands six times for wlan to come on...

I think there is a setting or something at my startup that's getting the wlan off..
