[solved] Pacman wont accept a -Syu

i get the following:

::  starting full system upgrade...
::  Replace netkit-telnet with core/inetutils? [Y/n] y
::  Replace iproute with core/iproute2? [Y/n] y
::  Replace atl2 with core/kernel26? [Y/n] y
::  Replace wlan-ng26 with core/kernel26? [Y/n] y
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
::  ipw3945: requires kernel26<2.6.26

ipw3945 has been depreciated in the newer kernels in favor of using iwl3945. You'll need the iwlwifi-3945-ucode package, but can get rid of ipw945.
