Not better (please note that I've upgraded to kernel 2.6.27.4-desktop-0.uc1mnb since my last post):

# modprobe iwlagn
WARNING: Error inserting iwlcore (/lib/modules/2.6.27.4-desktop-0.uc1mnb/updates/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlcore.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
FATAL: Error inserting iwlagn (/lib/modules/2.6.27.4-desktop-0.uc1mnb/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlagn.ko.gz): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

For your information, with my genuine kernel module, I had the following infos:
# wpa_cli status
Selected interface 'wlan0'             
bssid=1a:66:de:7a:ae:dc                
ssid=MiddleEarth                       
id=0                                   
pairwise_cipher=CCMP                   
group_cipher=TKIP                      
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK                       
wpa_state=COMPLETED

# iwconfig wlan0 essid "MiddleEarth" key s:XXXXXXX
Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
    SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.

and still Not-Associated

Do you know something I can try to find the solution? Thanks for your help.

Yesterday I deleted all wifi and wpa configuration and after lot af try I managed to make it work again. I rebooted and it was still working. But today it doesn't work anymore.

Thanks I'll add these to the script

We no longer have iwl4965, the new name is iwlagn, try that.

I see a discrepancy on the directory where the modules are being
picked up on. The ones that should be used are the ones in updates for
compat-wireless, your kernel drivers are under kernel. Lets try this
to be sure:

cd /lib/modules/2.6.27.4-desktop-0.uc1mnb/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi

rename everything there from foo to foo.ignore, for example, then run

sudo depmod -ae

and finally then try unloading all the wireless modules and then try
loading iwlagn.
