I think so
]$ rpm -q  iwl5000-firmware
iwl5000-firmware-8.83.5.1_1-1.fc14.noarch

and I agree that the situation is very weird. Wireless was working fine on 
the rt-kernel until I updated packages last week. I think there was a 
firmwere update among them - perhaps that update isn't compatible with 
this rt-kernel somehow?

thanks
