The current version of the driver for Intel 3945 and 4965 wireless
cards (iwl3945 and iwl4965) does not contain code to control the
wireless LED indicator.  Discussions about how to implement the LED
have taken place and proposed patches have been submitted upstream,
but have yet to be incorporated into the driver.  The LED
functionality will hopefully be included in a future release.
