</I>Yes, thanks, I managed to set up all the sources.
Looked at the 3945 wireless problem again and found that the switch
which I thought controlled Bluetooth actually enables wireless (senile
old git). So, wlan0 comes up but cannot connect. I tried restarting
the router, to no avail. Rebooted - still no connection. The blue LED
is on. Tried ifup wlan0 and was told that it was configured with a
roaming daemon (or something) but was not associated, even though I had
configured it a dozen times; SSID, wpa2/wpa, encryption key... and
switched off roaming. What next?
