the way I see it, that's a message from the USB root to the kernel. The kernel
simply prints out the information presesented to it from the device, but then
you need an actual driver to interface between the kernel and the hardware,
which ,  i believe, is still missing for the 3945. Maybe NDIS may be an option
for this card? 

check the archives, there's quite a bit on this (either questions of mobile-)
