Intel Pro/Wireless 3945 in KDE on Debian

Got a Intel Pro/Wireless 3945-series WiFi card? Well, here is how you get it to work:

# aptitude install firmware-ipw3945 ipw3945d ipw3945-source module-assistant wpasupplicant network-manager-kde

Requires both the official non-free and contrib repositories. No reboot required.

Remember to apply KNetworkManager fix (This may require reboot; depending on Debian’s mood.)
